These concert events have been held on Thursdays on the Restaurant Finca Hortella d’en Cotanet in Sant Joan. The organisers say that there have been threats and complaints and “quite a few visits” from the police and the Guardia Civil. This isn’t a brand new scenario this summer season, as there was this strain in earlier years.

Criticising a scarcity of help from Sant Joan city corridor and the Balearic authorities, the organisers have acknowledged on social media that it hurts their souls to need to say goodbye on this method – “completely towards our will”.

“Mallorca is formally a land of vacationers. We locals don’t have any place and the authorities affirm this with their angle.” All they, the organisers, have sought is to advertise the island’s musical variety.

“It’s unhappy that 12 months after 12 months we have now needed to overcome obstacles which have grown greater and larger. Those that take into account themselves our political representatives have as soon as once more failed us and have tilted the steadiness in direction of those that have more cash. Within the face of an Airbnb filled with Germans who suppose that Mallorca is their very own personal spa, you can’t compete irrespective of how exhausting you attempt.”

* In listings for occasions in Mallorca, a begin time of 11pm is given for an evening of indie rock (August 18) and an evening of reggae (August 25).
