Latin stars Nicky Jam and Camilo are touring parts of Spain this summer, but clubs on the Balearic island still have no re-opening dates.

While clubs are reopening in Madrid and Barcelona -- and some festivals are planned in July -- the chances of a summer season in Ibiza, Spain’s clubbing hub for electronic dance music, are hanging in the balance.
