A packed weekend of cultural, leisure, and social events is on the horizon, with Saturday shaping up to be especially intense. The schedule is filled with major highlights, including International Women’s Day (8M) celebrations, the long-awaited Ibiza Town Carnival Parade, and the Fira des Gerret in Santa Eulària—all happening on the same day. With so much going on, careful planning will be key to making the most of the events.
In the days leading up to the weekend, numerous activities will be taking place, organised by Pitiusan institutions, feminist groups, and various organisations to honour Women’s Day. These include exhibitions, talks, concerts, theatre performances, and awareness-raising events, particularly on Saturday.
Music lovers will also have plenty to enjoy, with three concerts from the Dies Musicals series, blues singer Lara Vizuete’s Ibiza mini-tour, Spa Duet’s charity performance on Saturday in support of Apneef, a youth orchestra concert at the Fairground, and a special DJ set by Esta me la sé at Teatro Pereyra, among other musical happenings.
Families can look forward to children’s musicals, including The Lion’s Legacy, which will be staged at the Fairground on both Saturday and Sunday.
On the film scene, the Anem al cine and Zinetic series continue, but the standout event is the final stretch of the Ibizacinefest independent film festival, which comes to a close on Sunday. And that’s just a glimpse of what’s in store—there’s much more to explore over the weekend.
