Magaluf Twitter campaign tells British holiday-makers that binge-drinking crackdown ‘won’t change anything’

magaluf girls2BOOZED-up British teenagers are set for another alcohol-induced summer in Magaluf despite a crackdown on binge-drinking.

The party destination hit new lows last summer when a video showed a British girl perform oral sex on 24 men in return for a cocktail.

And despite new drinking laws, the company behind the infamous event, Carnage Magaluf, is already signing up youngsters on the promise of ‘unlimited free shots’ and ‘£30 booze cruises’.

The events company is even playing on its own infamy, tweeting: “Who’s ready for the world famous bar crawl starting in April.”

Meanwhile the Magaluf 2015 Twitter feed posted a message labelling the drinking laws as ‘absolute nonsense’.

It read: “Absolute nonsense about drinking laws in #Magaluf. Clubs still open till 6am, bars open until 4am, some bars open at 6am!”

It also posted a photo girls in bikinis with the caption: “I can’t wait to be ashamed of all the things I do in Magaluf 2015,” adding “Don’t believe the hype, the Magaluf street drinking ban isn’t going to change anything this summer!.”

It comes after Spanish police were given new powers to seize drinks from tourists between 10pm and 8am.

A move to introduce British police in party destinations such as Magaluf and Ibiza was also mooted last month but is yet to be confirmed.

  1. Thought they were going to crackdown this summer why should the people who live there have to put up with this have a good time yes but some of it is OTT if the bars don’t like the new rules close them down they will soon abide by them

  2. Lived in Palma on a boat 30+ years ago before they went into the Euro Group and Magaluf was a main destination to go on our boat with many other boats in convoy it was one of the main tourist places then and full of binge drinkers.

    Very common for tourists to go on tours to many places that gave free bottles of the cheap champagne which got you pissed so fast. The little island off the beach had so many all night party’s it was a great place all those years ago, remember them well. You could buy bottles of wine and Spanish brandy for less than a pint of English beer on tap.
