In April 1994 Ibiza opened the doors of a small café which was to become so much more to the island than a place to grab some food a drink. Twenty years on Café Mambo is an institution in Ibiza – a perfect representation of the White Isle party spirit having hosted every manner of pre-party, the iconic sunset vista sound-tracked by the biggest names on the scene including Pete Tong, Paul Oakenfold, Erick Morillo, Sasha, Eric Prydz, David Guetta, Solomun, Luciano, Nic Fanciulli and so many more.
As inseparable from Ibiza as Mambo may seem, every so often the Mambo Brothers get the urge to take the Mambo party on tour and share the Sunset Strip feeling with the world. This Mambo 20th Anniversary tour is a decidedly global affair, with events ranging from London, to Poland, to the Arab Emirates and the French Alps. One of the biggest events of the tour is tipped to be the Mambo London bash, which will be held at London's own Pacha nightclub, with which Mambo has had a successful collaboration for some time. On Saturday the 15th of March Mambo will begin its 20th celebrations with a Pacha take-over featuring Felix da Housecat, Kaz James and the Mambo Brothers themselves.
"We are delighted with the Cafe Mambo residency in Pacha London. This first year has been brilliant, with each party being better than the last! We are looking forward to the 15th of March to share the DJ booth with two great friends - Felix da Housecat and Kaz James, to celebrate our 20th year anniversary! It will be an unforgettable night - and we will make sure there is enough Mambo Hierbas for everyone ;) See you in London!"

Another standout moment of the Mambo global tour is sure to be the snowy stop-off in Chamonix in the French Alps from April 10th to the 14th. For another year Mambo goes on the piste, bringing warm Balearic vibes to the French ski season with Chicane on the bill so far. There are some enticing ticket and accomodation packages on offer for this one, so could be well worth a pre-summer venture to the moutains over the channel.
