Rising fees for Mallorca party singers strain events and jobs
The Ballermann party scene in Mallorca is facing a downturn as hit songs attract smaller audiences and reach declines.
Fees for many party singers are still rising, with some asking up to €50,000 for a 45-minute performance using backing tracks.

Several fire brigade and marksmen’s festivals have been cancelled in Germany.
In Mallorca, more than 100 workers have lost their jobs.
