STUCK-in-their-ways Brits are being offered a chance to test their spontaneity by accepting a free holiday to Ibiza – but there’s a catch.
Partygoers picked at random from an event that starts in London on Thursday May 15 and finishes in will be asked if they’d be willing to jump on a plane leaving the next day.
If they say yes on the night, they’ll be booked on to a flight to The White Isle the day after for a trip to remember.
It comes after a survey of 2,000 adults found 61% admit they struggle to be spontaneous.
Yet 41% believe saying “yes”;; more leads to breaking free from routine and monotony while 64% think the best memories come from impromptu decisions.
A spokesperson for San Miguel, which collaborated with Mixmag to create the event, trip and research, said: “The adult population would love to live more like the , embracing spontaneity, sun and connection.
“This is our invitation to dare to do that: to break free from the everyday, say ‘sÃ’ to new adventures, and prove that a Spanish summer feeling can be found anywhere – even on a Thursday night in Hackney Wick.”;;
The study also found 62% wish they were freer and easier in their daily lives.
But 47% tend to overthink decisions, while financial concerns (44%) and fear of the unknown (42%) also prevent them from being more spontaneous.
For 49%, an encouraging friend or partner would help motivate them to be more impulsive, while 42% think the idea of making life more exciting would prompt them to step out their comfort zone.
Booking a last-minute trip (34%), spending a day exploring a new area with no set plan (33%) and saying yes to a social event with little notice are among the spontaneous activities adults would try.
But 24% of those who took part in the study by OnePoll.com admit to feeling nervous when someone suggests doing something out of the ordinary.
Spending more time outdoors, especially in the evenings (41%), and taking long, leisurely lunches and siestas, are the things they would like to incorporate into their summer to make it feel more .
Meanwhile, 54% claim their happiness would increase “a lot”;; if they approached summer in a more way.
For those not going to , the night in London will still deliver Balearic summer vibes with world-class sets from Eats Everything, Tibasko, Storm Mollison and Paige Tomlinson.
A spokesperson for the beer brand added: “Fly San Miguel isn’t just a party – it’s a mindset, a gateway to possibility.
“It’s about saying yes to adventure, no matter where you are.
“This summer, we’re bringing that Spanish feeling to every corner of the UK.”;;
