Southend Airport will be holding a 'Party in the Car Park' to celebrate the launch of their flights to a popular Spanish destination.
The event, taking place on Wednesday, April 29 from 4pm to 7pm, marks the start of new flights to Ibiza and will feature free holiday-themed nuggets, a live DJ, drinks from Los Brewery, and a chance to win a £1,000 holiday to the island.
Southend Airport posted to their Facebook: "Who's ready to celebrate?? The summer season has begun, and soon we'll be flying to Ibiza for summer 2026! This definitely warrants a party, wouldn't you agree?"
The event will take place in the airport’s Mid Stay car park, with free parking available for all attendees.
