Over the past couple of months, there has been a vast amount of debate going around the social sphere of banning phones at shows and placing other restrictions. It’s been briefly talked about by artists like John Summit, who recently expressed support for the idea on social media, highlighting the importance of fans being fully immersed in the live experience. James Hype has also weighed in on the debate, implementing a no-phone policy for his residency at Hï Ibiza.
Now adding to this growing issue is Afterlife, who have announced a strict no-phone policy at their shows for the remainder of their residency at Hï Ibiza. The policy will be effective starting Thursday, 27th June, and will be enforced throughout the club and for the entire summer residency season. So whether you’re catching Chris Avantgarde close the club room with a darker and harder set or catching Tale of Us in the Theatre, you’ll have only the music, the visuals, the vibes, and other patrons ready to take you fully into the experience.
Afterlife has gained popularity over the years for their stunning visuals that keep patrons enticed and in awe. The recent implementation of a no-phone policy aims to rekindle the special feeling of raving. It offers fans the chance to connect deeply with the immersive imagery and show created by Afterlife, free from the distractions of cell phone usage. This means you can fully bask in the graphics without being surrounded by bright phone screens.
While it might be a controversial move since many people attend an Afterlife show to capture the stunning visuals, the intention behind the no-phone policy is to enhance the live experience. By encouraging attendees to immerse themselves in the moment, this shift aims to foster a deeper connection with the music, the ambiance, and the collective energy of the crowd, creating a more memorable and engaging atmosphere.
