Environmental Activities Take Centre Stage
Environmental awareness remains one of the central elements of Qué Celeste.
The 2026 programme began on September 12 with a beach clean-up in the s'Estufador area, with the meeting point at the church of Pilar de la Mola.
On Friday, September 18, the programme includes a Coastal Health Workshop led by Samuel Pinya, a biologist and lecturer in Ecology at the Universitat de les Illes Balears.

On Saturday, September 19, the environmental programme includes the workshop "Posidonia: En búsqueda de flores", organised by GOB Formentera.
The activity takes place at Es Pujols beach from 12:00 to 14:00 and combines an explanation on land with a light-water activity focused on identifying Posidonia flowers.
Later in the afternoon, GOB Formentera will present another environmental workshop focused on observations carried out in the waters surrounding Formentera.
Art and Recycling on Sunday
The 10th-anniversary celebrations continue on Sunday, September 20.
At 20:00, the Centre Antoni Tur "Gabrielet" will host the second Encounter and Exhibition of Artists and Artisans of Recycling.
The event will bring together artists and artisans from Menorca, Mallorca, Ibiza and Formentera.
The opening will include a DJ set by DJ Flowdalou, with the event highlighting the transformation and reuse of materials through artistic creation.
The Environmental Programme Continues Until September 26
Qué Celeste does not end with the main festival weekend.
On Saturday, September 26, from 10:00 to 14:00, the Espai Cultural de Sant Ferran will host "Oasis de Mariposas".
The activity will involve creating a space for butterflies using aromatic plants and requires prior registration.
This final activity extends the festival's environmental programme beyond the main music and arts events.
A Decade of Culture and Environmental Awareness

Over the course of the anniversary programme, the festival brings together live music, circus, creative workshops, local artists, environmental education and activities centred on the reuse of materials.
