Pep Tur, Councilor for Culture and Heritage, has emphasized that the presentation’s goal is to present the city as a safe space and a city of reference for culture and heritage. “Ibiza has had a privileged relationship with culture. Since the mid-twentieth century, many artists, thinkers, writers, and inventors have disembarked in its streets, seeking new horizons or fleeing a cruel reality that had destroyed the continent, leaving lasting scars. And they arrived packed with new ideas and projects, which were soon adopted and flourished, precisely under the security of the Renaissance walls that encircled the Dalt Vila district. Today, we have complete and absolute certainty that this symbiotic relationship will continue to thrive. In our city, the bond between Ibizan historical heritage and culture is an evident reality” claimed Pep Tur.

Other suggestions for Ibiza

Dessiré Ruiz, Councillor for Tourism, emphasized that these are not the only activities taking place in the city. The Department of Tourism has planned a year-round schedule of programs and events for visitors and inhabitants to enjoy the island’s cultural and sporting activities.

Other activities proposed in this annual agenda, which can be found on the Ibiza tourism website, include gastronomic events, active tourism activities, the Nit del Patrimoni, a cultural event held simultaneously in Spain’s 15 World Heritage Cities, the Ibiza Gay Pride, the Ibizacine film festival, and the International electronic music festival.

“In the intramural environment, we can also enjoy guided tours, dramatized tours, or even a visit to the city’s main museums such as the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Broner House, the Puget Museum, the Diocesan Museum, or the interpretation center Madina Yabisa, as well as touring the history through the visit to the Renaissance walls and bastions that make up one of the declared assets and that give us the category of World Heritage,” Ruiz stated“.

The City Council of Ibiza, with these five suggestions, “wants to give a city open to everyone, residents and visitors, and provide an opportunity for anybody who wishes to approach history and do so from the most contemporary proposals,” according to the City Council of Ibiza.
