Christmas is already a full-on agenda for this first weekend of December, and it will remain so until after the Three Kings. Starting this Friday, when Sant Antoni, Sant Josep, Santa Eulària and Formentera inaugurate their Christmas lights and Christmas markets, a week after Vila, which on Saturday opens the ice rink, bouncy castles and food trucks that will be in the Reina Sofía Park all Christmas long.
The Christmas program is very extensive in all the municipalities and it is worthwhile to take a close look at the program. There will be storytellers, shows and movies.
There is more, such as theater with three new plays of the amateur theater cycle Pedro Cañestro friday, Saturday and Sunday in Ibiza. And also in Formentera, with no paradise under your seaton Saturday at the municipal cinema. And also dance, with ‘Azul petróleo’ the same day at Can Ventosa.
In addition, will be on the island the protagonists of the movie ‘CampeoneX’with a public presentation on Saturday at the Auditori Caló de s’Oli in Sant Josep.
Also, among other things, are parties in Sant Francesc Xavier, with Flower on Saturday and the traditional activities on Sunday, and end those of Forada, with the Mostra Folkloric Arrels Vives on Sunday at noon.
