Formentera: Christmas and New Year's Eve

Once again, the Formentera Town Council, together with several local entities, has prepared a complete programme of activities for Christmas, including music, sports, exhibitions and other cultural, religious and popular activities.

Worth mentioning is the "VII Festa del Repoblament" organised by the Obra Cultural Balear de Formentera, that will be held on December 24 at 5 p.m., with traditional dances and the presentation by Santiago Colomar of the number 1 of the magazine "Miranda", edited by the same cultural association.

Another interesting activity will be the popular walk organised by the Patronat Municipal d'Ecología i Medi Ambient and the Amics de la BTT, that will take place on Sunday 30, at 10 a.m. starting at Es Caló.

The most interesting activity for children will be the arrival of the Three Kings at the Port de la Savina, on Saturday 5 at 6.30 p.m., and the most traditional proposal will be the "carramelles" by the Esquadra de Caramellers de Santa Gertrudis, on Sunday, December 6, at 10.30 a.m. at the Church of Sant Francesc.
