Anyma, one half of the inventive duo Tale Of Us, asked his fans on Instagram in early July should Afterlife ban mobile devices in their events. This came as a result of social media backlash from people stating that everyone is filming the incredible show visuals rather than enjoying and being in the moment. Around 32.000 fans voiced their opinion and the results were 77 percent for and 23 percent against banning phones on the dancefloor. Soon, Afterlife announced that they will be implementing the no-phones rule throughout their Hï Ibiza residency.

After announcing their groundbreaking no phones policy on social media, Afterlife successfully opened their Hï Ibiza residency on the 27th of July with no phones in the crowd.

This Thursday, the aforementioned Afterlife Hï Ibiza residency began and it was evidently a whole another event without the usage of mobile devices. Even with the enforcement of the policy, some people managed to sneak in their phones and recorded without fear of being caught out. Compared to some other bigger shows Afterlife have organized where almost everyone filmed the show, this was a refreshing sight. If you want to see the footage from the opening show, click here.

As previously said, Hï Ibiza will be the home for Afterlife shows starting from previous Thursday all the way until 22nd of August. Each week, every room including The Theatre, Club Room, and Wild Corner will host a sensational lineup. Names like Kevin de Vries, Maceo Plex, Camelphat, and Argy will grace Hï Ibiza on selected dates. Combine the incredible lineup with cutting-edge sound systems of the #1 club in the world and this summer is destined to be an unforgettable one. You can secure your tickets on this link.
