Every year, Ibiza programmes many traditional events that are of great interest to travellers who wish to learn about our culture. We recommend checking the events calendar before buying your flight tickets and booking your room at Hotel Ánfora. This way, besides the beauty of our beaches and landscapes, you will be able to experience the island’s traditions firsthand.
In Spain, August is a month full of fiestas. Many villages and cities in the country celebrate their festivities in honour of their patron saints, an ancient custom that comes from the secular rites held to celebrate the harvest. Ibiza is also in the mood for celebrations in August, especially the Festes de la Terra and the fiestas of Sant Bartomeu, that are in the city of Ibiza and in Sant Antoni de Portmany, respectively.
Did you know that Saint Cristopher, patron of travelers and drivers, is also the patron saint of Es Canar? If you’re on holiday in Ibiza in the next July 10th, visit us, learn about our tradition and join the local festivities.
