The Feria de Sant Carles de Peralta will be the scene this Saturday of the 6th Fira Gastronòmica del Calamar, organized jointly by the Festival Committee, AAVV La Unión, the Confraria de Pescadors d’Ibiza and the Santa Eulària of City Council, with the support of the Consell de Ibiza.
From 11am, in the surroundings of the church, the contest will again be held for both professional chefs and amateurs to participate offering traditional tastes to innovative tapas with this typical product of Ibizan gastronomy as the main ingredient.

The Confraria de Pescadors is already making the catches to offer participants about a ton of squid with which it is estimated that they offer up to 8,000 servings. Each ration can be purchased at affordable prices after conversion of euros ‘carlinos’ (official currency of the festival) which will cover the cost of materials.
