No doubt about it……England rules this department. Of course, Ibiza is the most natural contender to the throne. Most concerts are held on Saturday, entrance tickets are naturally very pricey, and all are usually held in discrete (or even secret) locations that require calling some number in advance for the exact location. As a result, often these dates and locations change like the wind the author advises for one to please not take the dates and locations as the “gospel truth.”
