The play by Bernat Joan, performed by the Anna Xantal company, returns to Ibiza’s UNESCO-listed old town on Sunday 15 November, with a free performance starting at 11am at Portal de ses Taules.
The streets and historic corners of Dalt Vila will once again become an open-air theatre this Sunday, 15 November, with a performance of Quatre estampes eivissenques, a play by Bernat Joan staged by the independent Anna Xantal theatre company.
The production is part of Ibiza Town Council’s Municipal Heritage Promotion Programme, an initiative designed to bring the city’s history and culture closer to residents and visitors through a variety of artistic disciplines.
The performance will begin at 11am at Portal de ses Taules, the meeting point for those wishing to attend. Admission is free, and no advance booking or registration is required.
Quatre estampes eivissenques takes audiences on a theatrical journey through Ibiza’s historic walled town, with different scenes unfolding at various locations throughout Dalt Vila. Actors appear at different points along the route, surprising spectators and accompanying those who choose to follow the performance through the historic streets.
Further performances of the production are scheduled for 24 January and 21 March 2027, according to the Town Council.
Guided Heritage Tours and Cultural Routes Around Dalt Vila
The Municipal Heritage Promotion Programme also features theatrical guided tours, historical walks, dramatic readings and concerts held at some of the city’s most emblematic locations.
The next theatrical guided tours are scheduled for 21 November in Spanish and 19 December in Catalan, with two sessions on each date, at 10am and midday.
The heritage walks offer another opportunity to discover some of the most significant landmarks in Ibiza’s historic centre.

Both routes will last approximately two hours.

The first session, on 22 November, will focus on Fajarnés Cardona, followed by a second reading dedicated to Joan Xicó on 6 December. Both performances will begin at midday.
The Town Council’s cultural programme has also brought together several music series over recent months, staged in historic venues throughout Dalt Vila.
These have included Nits al Baluard, Lluna d’Estiu, Ibiza Concerts and the Eivissa International Jazz Festival, offering a varied programme of musical performances in some of the city’s most distinctive heritage settings.
