Traditional fiestas and holidays
The Nuestra Señora del Carmen takes place in July each year. This is a holiday in Ibiza Town, San Antonio and the neighbouring island of Formentera to celebrate the Patron Saint of all fishermen. Festivities include a regatta procession on the water in Ibiza Town.
There is also the Fiestas de San Cristobal which takes places in Es Cana and for the weekend the town is alive with lots of activities for the kids in the daytime and entertainment for the grown ups in the evening.
Flower power in Formentera
The flower parties in Formentera have become a big tourist attraction for visitors to Ibiza in recent years, with many people taking the trip to the beautiful island to take part in the fun. Though not a guaranteed annual event, they have been running for some years in July and take place across three different areas: San Francisco, La Mola and Es Pujols breach. There is public transport around the island to allow tourists to enjoy the parties in all locations.
Outdoor cinema showings
In summer the island’s heavenly nights are transformed with wonder at extraordinary open-air cinemas that take place in Dalt Vila in the old town of Ibiza. Cinema Paradiso brings a packed schedule of classic, cult and contemporary movies. Guests can sit back and enjoy the experience at this impressive location under the starry sky.
