Local festivals in Palma
Usual celebration
Sant Sebastià, Palma's patron saint, is celebrated on 20 January, with festivities on the surrounding days as well. The night of the 19th brings the Revetla: neighbourhoods and squares light foguerons for communal torradoras, alongside concerts, giants and xeremiers. The cycle includes the Correfoc and Sant Sebastià Petit in Sa Riera park, so the celebration lasts several days and brings residents, local organisations and cultural groups together across the city.
Other cultural events
Palma's cultural calendar also includes the Cavalcada de Reis, Nit de l'Art and programmes of music, dance, theatre and exhibitions. These events are distinct from the two declared local public holidays.
