Ibiza does a lot of costume parties too: themes range from retro to disco, twighlight and more.

3. Goa, India
In the 1960’s, Goa was a famous hang out spot for hippies. Today, Goa has evolved as a melting pot of different music styles and backgrounds. A trance-dance has even evolved to be called Goa Trance.

There are even world famous hotels, restaurants, clubs and pubs to choose from where you can sample a range of cuisine or even play poker to your heart’s content.
