This Wednesday, October 21, 2026, visitors can discover Renata Kverh's From Sunday to Sunday exhibition at Centre Antoni Tur Gabrielet in Sant Francesc, Maribel Escandell's D'aire i argila at Ajuntament Vell, Formentera Gastronomic Weeks at participating restaurants across the island, Scuba Week Ibiza's marine activities and conservation programme, and a free afternoon of rumba and pop with Los del Varadero at Cala Escondida in Ibiza.

From contemporary art and local gastronomy to underwater exploration and live music by the coast, these five events offer different ways to experience the Pityusic Islands during the quieter autumn season.

1. From Sunday to Sunday by Renata Kverh at Centre Antoni Tur Gabrielet

Art lovers visiting Formentera this Wednesday can discover From Sunday to Sunday, an exhibition by Renata Kverh at Centre Cultural Antoni Tur Gabrielet in Sant Francesc.

Opening on October 20, the exhibition forms part of Formentera's autumn cultural programme and remains on display until October 29. Its timing provides an opportunity for visitors to explore the island's contemporary art scene while enjoying a walk through Sant Francesc, the main town of Formentera.

The exhibition is housed at Centre Antoni Tur Gabrielet, a cultural space used for exhibitions and creative activities. Its central location makes it convenient to combine an art visit with the town's shops, cafés and nearby attractions.

The official event listing does not provide a detailed description of the individual works, so visitors can discover the exhibition directly rather than relying on an unverified interpretation of its artistic themes.

With morning and evening visiting hours, the exhibition offers flexibility for visitors planning a day around Formentera.

2. D'aire i argila by Maribel Escandell at Ajuntament Vell

Formentera's autumn art programme continues at Sala d'Exposicions Ajuntament Vell in Sant Francesc, where Maribel Escandell Guasch presents D'aire i argila.

The exhibition opened on October 19 and continues until October 31, offering visitors another opportunity to explore the island's cultural scene throughout the final weeks of October.

The title, which translates as Of Air and Clay, evokes two contrasting elements and invites curiosity about the artist's creative approach. However, the published event listing does not provide a detailed description of the individual works, so the exhibition's specific themes and materials should not be assumed from its title alone.

The gallery is located in the centre of Sant Francesc, making it easy to combine the visit with Renata Kverh's exhibition at Gabrielet or lunch at one of the participating restaurants in Formentera Gastronomic Weeks.

Wednesday's schedule includes both a morning and an evening opening, giving visitors time to plan a cultural itinerary around the town.

3. Formentera Gastronomic Weeks Across the Island

Food enthusiasts have another reason to visit Formentera this week as the island's Gastronomic Weeks continue until Sunday, October 25.

Organised by PIMEF in collaboration with the Consell de Formentera, the initiative brings together 26 participating restaurants offering special menus that showcase the island's culinary identity and seasonal ingredients.

Each participating restaurant offers a dedicated menu priced at €28 per person, with drinks charged separately. The initiative encourages visitors to explore different restaurants and discover how local ingredients and Mediterranean influences appear across the island's dining scene.

The programme also includes a voting initiative. Diners can scan a QR code at participating restaurants to rate their menu and upload a photograph of their receipt. Anyone who votes at two or more different restaurants is eligible to enter a prize draw to win €500, subject to the competition's terms and conditions.

Restaurant schedules vary throughout the event. Some establishments offer lunch, others dinner, and some provide both services. A number of restaurants also have specific closing days, so it is important to check the participating restaurant's schedule before making a special journey.

For those travelling from Ibiza, Gastronomic Weeks can be combined with the exhibitions in Sant Francesc for a day dedicated to art, food and the quieter side of island life.

The wider initiative nevertheless makes this an important week for anyone interested in marine conservation, diving and the underwater landscapes surrounding Ibiza.

5. Los del Varadero Live at Cala Escondida

Live music returns to Cala Escondida this Wednesday afternoon as Los del Varadero bring their repertoire of rumba and pop covers to the beach bar.

The group was founded by Rubén Rubio and Manu Campanario, two singers and guitarists from Sant Antoni. For this performance, they are joined by trumpeter Will Bone and percussionist Dani Illan, creating a lively sound that combines guitars, vocals, trumpet and percussion.

Their repertoire spans different artists, musical eras and styles, blending familiar pop melodies with the relaxed rhythms of rumba. The result is an accessible live performance suited to an afternoon by the coast, offering an alternative to Ibiza's larger nightlife venues.

Cala Escondida has moved from its former location at Es Racó d'en Xic in Platges de Comte to the southern end of Playa d'en Bossa, near Torre des Carregador, for the 2026 season. The venue continues to host live performances by local musicians.

The concert is scheduled from 18:30 to 20:30, with free admission. It is a good option for visitors who want to enjoy live music, a relaxed beach-bar atmosphere and a different side of Ibiza's autumn entertainment programme.

Art, Gastronomy, the Sea and Live Music This Wednesday

Wednesday, October 21, brings together a varied cultural and leisure programme across Ibiza and Formentera.

In Sant Francesc, the exhibitions by Renata Kverh and Maribel Escandell provide opportunities to explore contemporary art, while Formentera Gastronomic Weeks invites visitors to sample special menus at participating restaurants across the island.
