Magaluf revellers gear up for today’s England game with a night of booze, crossdressing and crime in the Majorca party hotspot

Saturday night fever swept through Magaluf last night as revellers dressed up to party as the temperature reached boiling point.

Grown men dressed as chambermaids, women wore racy t-shirts, and everyone was fully charged for a night of sin.

But for a hapless few the festivities became too much with one man spotted asleep with his head in his hands and another young woman out cold on a bench.

All this occurred just hours before the Majorca resort is set to explode with football fever as England take on Slovakia in their must-win Euro clash this afternoon.

A patrol of Spanish Policia Local appear oblivious as a burly Briton flashed his man-hood at stunned holiday makers on the busy Magaluf strip.

Later a suspected pick-pocket was cornered by night-club security guards as he was spotted dipping into holidaymakers’ handbags.

But nothing could stop the thousands of young Britons enjoying the balmy night out darting between night clubs, bars and fast-food outlets until the sun began to rise over the Mediterranean Sea.

One young woman from Manchester told MailOnline: ‘It’s great here. I’m here with my friends. 

‘We have saved up all year for this week and we are going to make the most of it.’

Her boyfriend added: ‘It’s totally mad. I love it.’

However mayhem in Magaluf is no rarity as droves of drunk Scotland fans descended on the streets as they prepared to watch their home team take on Switzerland in a Euro 2024 clash.

The 600-m long main drag of bars, clubs and kebab shops were filled with partygoers dressed in Scottish kilts after the football team drew 1-1 with Switzerland last Thursday.

Hoards of the Tartan Army queued to have alcohol poured down their gullets, as a staggering 300 pints of Tennent’s lager were downed at The Scotsman pub.

Elsewhere other Scottish supporters were spotted guzzling bottles of their national drink – Buckfast- as they sang the Proclaimers’ hit I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) TO midfield star John McGinn.

Before the game began, barman Ryan Smith, 28,: ‘We’re going through bottles of vodka like no tomorrow, and wine as well.

‘We’re at capacity and there’s no more room. Everyone is here for a party. It doesn’t matter who we play, it’s always a party.’

However when a Swiss own-goal saw Scotland briefly ahead beers and glasses went flying through the eair. 

Tom, from Aberdeen, said: ‘We’ve been on it since four and we’ll be going all night.

‘Magaluf is great. There’s no better place to be than with the boys watching Scotland.’

Pal Brandon Martin, 19, added: ‘It’s brilliant. Birds and booze and a great time.

‘We’ve been here a week and gone out every night so we’re going home a little bit broken.

‘Win or lose, we are on on the booze.’

However some Scots were hoping to score themselves before jetting back to the cold north. 

Finlay Wilson, 18, who also hails from Aberdeen, added: ‘I’m going to try and get a s*** on my last night.

‘I’ve had no luck so far, just kisses. We gonna kick the a*** of our Magaluf on our last night.’

Despite the recent influx of revellers on the strip, the tourist hotspot was half empty at the end of May – a typically busy time of year – following a mass protest from locals.

Beaches were a ghost town as images of empty deckchairs, cafes, bars and restaurants surrounding Magaluf emerges.

Even the paths that run alongside the beaches in Magaluf, best known for its vibrant nightlife that almost exclusively serves tourists, are all but empty at the time.

Businesses told the Majorcan Daily Bulletin of their concerns that protests had driving tourists away only days before the peak season was set to begin.

One bar owner told the outlet: ‘Their wishes have been granted.’

The photos showed Magaluf as a ghost town come shortly after protestors began to make preparations to Majorca’s beaches in a new stand over mass tourism to ‘squeeze’ out foreign tourists.

Those who organised the march, involving 15,000 on June 1 promised : ‘This is just the start of things.’

The group which calls itself Mallorca Platja Tour – Majorca Beach Tour in Catalan – started an online campaign urging locals to ‘occupy’ the island’s beaches on May 28.

The latest campaign appears to have been triggered by the comments of Manuela Canadas, spokesman for far-right wing party Vox in the Balearic Islands’ regional parliament.

She responded the protest stating: ‘I understand the discontent but us Mallorcans, who live directly or indirectly from tourism, cannot expect to go to the beach in July and August like we did years ago.’

Claiming protests like Saturday’s demo sent out tourism-phobic messages, she added: ‘There are other more attractive destinations and we can end up going hungry because here’s there a lack of jobs.’
