Which city has the best Nightclubs, bars, live music, atmosphere and adult entertainment?
I love em both and cant decide which i like better. Ibiza has the amazing weather and beaches but Amsterdam is a much larger city. So which do you prefer and why?

I have only been to Majorca, but I heard it's similar. Heavily dominated by German tourists. But I just googled and it says Germans also are the largest group on Ibiza. Most foreign residents and tourists are German.
Illes Balears Film Commission

Quote:
26,214 Germans (17.05% of the total), 17,602 British (11.44%), 10,118 Italians (6.62%) and 6,385 French (4.15%). 41,865 people, or 27.23%, originate from South America, in numerical order: 9,865 Ecuadorians, 9,006 Argentineans, 6,661 Colombians and 3,494 Uruguayans.
Kind of wondering about the numbers for South American residents. That's quite a lot of them.



And it's mostly just about partying. You can't compare a party island in a tropical-like climate to a city in central Europe. It's a different nightlife, of course. Primarily outside in bars and along the beach. You also can't forget it's just an island. It's not as large of course. But if I had to choose, I would choose Amsterdam simply because it's bigger ( more variety ).

Ibiza is has the best nightlife in Europe I would say but then other people would define nightlife differently, if you wanna get drunk, see nice women and go to world-famous nightclubs then Ibiza is hard to beat.

Probably very different scenes. Amsterdam has more like a city nightlife with a range of options, while Ibiza is pure hedonism and partying.

I prefer Amsterdam over Ibiza.

I just was never a fan of clubs with thousands of people inside.

I said Ibiza, though I've never been. I have been to Palma de Majorca (and Majorca) which is part of the same chain (the Balearics) and Majorca has beautiful beaches. While the Canarios are way nicer, Gran Canaria is not the nicest of Spanish Islands. The Catalan culture on the Balearics is more aloof, but who cares.

If you like to smoke reefer, than Amsterdam. If you want to get drunk, go with Ibiza.

Ibiza is part of the Balearic islands, but very different from Majorca (the main island).

I live near Ibiza and I think that Ibiza is nice if you are young, have a good body and LOTS of dollars.

People in this area prefer Thrid Word Destinations.
