With some of the most renowned clubs in Europe, Majorca holidays make for the perfect break for all party goers. Majorca holidays are legendary for one of Europe’s liveliest club scenes and Magaluf is the without doubt the hotspot for thriving nightclubs and bars. Head to the Punta Ballena strip where you’ll find club goers and a bustling atmosphere of bars and pubs.

With the launch of the Mallorca Rocks Hotel in Magaluf this summer, the resort saw some the hottest UK performers, the Kooks, Tinie Tempah and Dizzee Rascal where just a few of the celebrities the hotel bagged this summer. Book your tickets in advance and you won’t have to worry about entrance fees upon arrival.

Majorca holidays attract more than just the average tourist nowadays days. Stylish parts of Northern Majorca and picturesque landscapes are ideal for relaxing in the day.

Where to go on July

Posted by: Surfer on: May 17, 2010

It’s great idea to visiting one of the best-known music festivals and one of the most prestigious in Europe – The Montreux Jazz Festival that will take part in in Switzerland during 02-17 July 2010. You can enjoy there not only with refind music of such famous musicians as Norah Jones, Paco de Lucia, Petula Clark, Quincy Jones and the Global Gumbo All Stars, Tori Amos, Vanessa Paradis and others greatests but also enjoy one of the most beautiful regions in Europe – Montreux Riviera.

By the way, if you live in Australia or going visit this country this summer you have to know that Australia becomes first country outside of Switzerland to open a Montreux Jazz Cafe bringing rare performances and a taste of the Swiss Riviera to Sydney! Sydney International Airport has opened the doors on the first permanent Montreux Jazz Café outside of Switzerland. This long-standing dream of Founder & CEO of the Montreux Jazz Festival Claude Nobs, will provide the public with the opportunity to dine in a unique setting that highlights the history of Europe’s most famous music Festival.

Besides that there are great number of different things you can try – trampolines for kids, photos to canvas, bouncy castle and much more.
