Sunday, October 4 brings a packed programme of events across Ibiza and Formentera, with everything from traditional island celebrations and local markets to outdoor adventures, sporting events, art, family activities, food, live music and some of the season’s biggest closing parties.

In Ibiza, the day combines authentic local traditions with coastal experiences and a busy evening programme. Font de Cas Ramons near Santa Gertrudis hosts a traditional countryside gathering, while the Sant Miquel celebrations continue with a programme dedicated to older residents. Cala de Bou also begins its Sunday festivities with sport, a community solidarity lunch and a bingo fundraiser.

Formentera has its own full agenda, with the final day of the SON Estrella Galicia Posidonia Festival, World Bird Day activities, the Pilar de la Mola celebrations, markets, an under-13 bouldering competition and the La Mola artisan market.

As the afternoon arrives, Ibiza moves into sunset sessions, live music and cultural performances before a major night of closing parties takes over the island.
