The best plans for the weekend in Ibiza and Formentera

Santa Eulària‘s Maig festival marks the agenda of the whole weekend; in which the singer Chenoa shines with her own light on Saturday. But there are many more things on the program for Saturday and Sunday, and for all audiences, so it is advisable to study it well, such as the concert that closes the day on Sunday by Projecte Mut. It should not be forgotten that it is a festival declared of cultural interest.

In this weekend there are many things to enjoy, such as music, with the Contrast Ibiza Festival with concert by Marky Ramone and exhibition of the no less legendary photographer Bob Gruen on Saturday at sa Punta des Molí, or the recital of film music with the bands of Sant Josep and Sant Antoni the same Saturday in Sant Josep, or on Sunday: Ibiza String Ensemble with the soundtrack of ‘The Bridgertons’ at Can Ventosa, the Affinity Quartet in the church of Santo Domingo, or the indie music of Veintiuno at the Auditori Caló de s’Oli…

Also theater, with a monologue about Columbus this Thursday in Dalt Vila; the family show ‘Bunji, la petita coala’ on Friday at the Auditorium of Cas Serres; or dance with ‘361º’ on Sunday also in Cas Serres.

And also highlights the party Viu la Primavera all Saturday in Sant Antoni or the meeting Ibiza Card Show 2.0 for card and sticker collectors all weekend at the youth center C19 in Vila.
