"Caramelles de Nadal"

The Federació Colles de Ball i Cultura Popular d'Eivissa i Formentera, with the support from the Insular Council, has programmed several "Caramelles de Nadal" that will be held at different churches in Eivissa and Formentera these Christmas days. The "Caramelles de Nadal" are ancient chants that announce the birth of Jesus Christ, interpreted by "esquadres de caramellers", originally during the Christmas Eve service called "matines".

Most of the "caramelles" programmed will take place on the night of the 24th, as it was done traditionally, but there will also be performances on December 26 and 30, and on January 1, 6 and 20.
