Sant Josep:
And now the last venue of our tour, which was the highlight of our day: Club Festival. It’s hard to find, but we just put the location “Club Festival” in our Google Maps and the navigation system told us exactly where to drive.
Rob Smith’s book “Secret Walks South” found the following intriguing text: “In 1969, construction began on the Festival Club, a large outdoor music center in the wooded hills east of Sant Josep. It opened in 1972, but it was destined to fail because in 1973 due to the fuel crisis with high airfares, tourism on the island took a temporary dive. For thirty years, Festival Club has almost been taken back by nature: the roots of the trees grow right through what used to be a small amphitheater. It is a terrifying place, decorated with decades of graffiti making it look like an outdoor gallery dedicated to street arts “.
The first thing we saw were arches and lots of graffiti art. From the arches we could see the rolling hills and an overgrown amphitheater. Once the place where performance art and even bullfights had taken place, with several bars and a restaurant with rows of concrete tables.
The venue closed in 1974 after only two seasons and will probably never reopen.
Vandals have destroyed some of the infrastructure, but most of the structural damage is done by nature. Pine trees grow through the concrete and their roots slowly tear apart the amphitheater.
With these 9 locations you will have to make do for today. We hope you will enjoy our Graffiti tour around the island just as much!
