Ibiza 2020: from January to April
Even though Hotel Ánfora won’t be opening its doors to the public until 25th April, we still want to tell you about the events planned for the first four months of the year in case you decide to come over to Ibiza for a relaxing getaway.
- January: during the first month of the year, Ibiza starts to dress in white with the flowering of the almond trees (if you’re here, don’t forget to visit the Pla de Corona valley in Santa Agnès) and is donning its festive colours for the local fiestas of Sant Antoni de Portmany (17th January) and Santa Agnès de Corona (21st January).
- February: this month, outdoor activities are the main feature of most events, including a night walk under a full moon through the almond-tree orchards of Santa Agnès (7th February) or the Nordic Walking routes organised by the town councils of Sant Antoni and Sant Josep. Also, on 12th February, Santa Eulària des Riu celebrates its local fiestas in honour of its virgin.
- March: spring is coming and there is no shortage of proposals, like the Jazz Point Ibiza festival, the 26th Passeig a Passeig race or the local fiestas of Sant Josep de Sa Talaia.
- April: apart from Easter, that will be from 5th to 12th April this year, this month also brings other plans to be noted down on the calendar, including the Ibiza Marathon (4th April) and the Ibiza Swing Fun Fest 2020 (24-26th April). And of course, Hotel Ánfora opens its doors on 25th April. So check our offers and book your stay at our 4-star hotel in Ibiza with swimming pools and jacuzzi.
