I know its not really swingers related but I'm sure those who go to PDI used to go here as well. Just saw a post on Facebook saying it has officially gone bankrupt. We used to love that place when we was out there. Always a good fun night when having a night off from the swinging. Will be missed xx |

Many a great night we had in sparkles, brilliant entertainment, hopefully they will all find employment elsewhere soon.
This pandemic has been the ruin of many a business,and with no governmental help on the island I'm surprised so many have not gone out of business earlier
PDI will be a different landscape when tourism opens fully again |

Hopefully once tourists start coming back we can re-build the industry here? It may be difficult and different for a few months but in the end I'm sure GC will bounce back.
Everyone here is working towards the same goal. |

"Lots of changes, but I'm sure everyone will still have a lovely holiday
You could work for my company with that last line! That's what we have to say to passengers as they board the aircraft x"
Haha! Bless you, just trying to remain positive. How are things with you? X |

"We would always have at least one night in sparkles.
Such a shame, let’s hope something similar pops up "

Yeah think we’ve been to them all in there, but sparkles was always a head and shoulders above for us |

Ricky's.
Only problem is that place is always rammed, if you don't get there early, you aren't getting a seat. |

What a great shame Sparkles was amazing, we had many a fantastic night there, superb queens and very friendly bar staff who looked after us so well. Was a great family feeing and lovey place to meet other LGBT ?????? people. Really hope that it reopens again!! |

Yeah that’s him. They had some great queens down the years. I remember seeing kerry katona there one pride. She was so off her tits I’m not sure she knew her own name. Sang 3/4 songs... I say sang, she shouted a lot and made the audience sing for her!
"Gutted by the news. Andi was always friendly to me and the bar was such fun. It will be a huge loss to the yumbo
Is Andi the Glaswegian? Always great banter and belly laughs."

"So Sparkles show bar is back open! Has anyone been? Is it as funny? It looks like Andi has moved on, he was so funny
Interesting news. Is it under new management do you know? "
Don't know about the management. Just hope they still rip us all to shreds! If you're easily offended, you can.... |

A vanilla couple friend of ours qa there 2 days ago. Said they had a Pre-show entertainment of some singers which were OK but not amazing, but the proper show was funny and good |

Yes,They went bankrupt due to covid. The old owners Andi and James have moved back to the UK. Tony (Dinah) is still in Spain. They have given their blessing for the new owners (a father & son) to keep the name. |
