Expressing their gratitude, Juan Arnau Jr. and Cruz Arnau remarked, "Truly thank you from the entire Arnau family and also and above all from our grandmother Pilar, who at 95 years old is extremely excited to receive in our name and from her home, in the middle of the fragatine orchard, this recognition of so many years of passion that all of us have had for the art of making our clients dance."


IMS Partner Ben Turner lauded the Arnau family's legacy: "The Arnau family and the El Row brand are true disruptors of global nightlife, not just Ibiza.
