The owners
of Joy Eslava in Madrid denied today a sales operation existed at
this moment of their famous club and reaffirmed the venue "is a strong and
forward-looking project".
Businessman
Pedro Trapote, nightclub owner, said JOY is currently "in its period of
greatest activity" with preparations of their 35th Anniversary and the launch of “Escenario Eslava” (Eslava Stage), a commitment
to live music with details being announced during the anniversary. The first
35 years of Joy Eslava are hot material from the history of our Madrid.
"Nightlife entrepreneurs are suffering a decade of linked problems, with the crisis, the
VAT increase, new administrative status, inheritance of misfortune Madrid Arena
and continuous inspections. This leaves the sector in an uncomfortable
position, and so many leads us to question the future. But it is not the case
with Joy."
Thus,
they have come out against reports in media that said Trapote planned to sell the distinguished club and in the future it would be a clothes store
or restaurant.
Joy Eslava, launched by entrepreneur Pedro Trapote in Madrid's central "Arenal" street, opened the evening of February 23, 1981, after
the overflowing euphoria of overcoming 23-F. Since then, political figures,
international celebrities, sports stars, and familiar faces of culture,
cinema, music, TV... Roger Moore, Pedro Almodóvar, Stevie Wonder and Julio Iglesias have danced at Joy Eslava.
"The first
35 years of Joy Eslava are hot material from the history of Madrid nightlife passing through the magical sieve into its more playful dimension."
