Amnesia (nightclub)

Amnesia is a well-known nightclub brand with several locations around the world, most notably recognized for its presence in Ibiza, Spain. The Ibiza location is considered one of the island's original and most influential superclubs.

History and Significance:

Amnesia Ibiza opened in the 1970s on a finca (farmhouse) that had previously been occupied by a hippie commune. The club quickly gained a reputation for its eclectic music policy, combining genres like rock, pop, and electronic music, a style that was uncommon at the time. Its open-air terraces, now covered, played a significant role in creating its unique atmosphere. Over the years, Amnesia Ibiza has been instrumental in shaping the sound of electronic dance music and promoting the "Ibiza sound" globally.

Notable Features:

• Two Main Rooms: Amnesia Ibiza is divided into two distinct rooms: The Club Room (previously known as "The Terrace") and the Main Room.
• Ice Cannons: Amnesia is famous for its impactful ice cannons, which periodically release blasts of CO2 over the dance floor, creating a dramatic and refreshing effect.
• International DJs: The club regularly hosts internationally renowned DJs and performers from various genres within electronic music, including techno, house, and trance.
• Party Brands: Amnesia is home to several established and popular party brands that run throughout the Ibiza summer season.

Global Presence:

Beyond Ibiza, Amnesia has expanded to other locations, bringing its brand and style of music and entertainment to different countries. While the Ibiza club remains the flagship and most recognized location, other Amnesia venues aim to recreate the Ibiza experience on a smaller scale.
