Medieval Days & Knights The Medieval Festival takes place in and around Dalt Vila from Thursday May 8th to Sunday May 11th. Held to celebrate Ibiza’s World Heritage Site status, which has its 15th anniversary this year, the area becomes a huge open-air street market and theatre and there are lots of events where you can learn more about the city and its heritage. The streets are decorated for the event, and are filled with market stalls with stallholders dressed up in medieval costumes, selling everything from crafts,

clothes, jewellery, food and drinks. There is also a rolling programme of live entertainment and performances throughout the town during the festival: music, processions, dancers, jugglers, historical re-enactments, exhibitions (ancient musical instruments manuscripts weapons and farming tools), animal and falconry displays, archery and the like. There are also special zones organising activities for children. See the programme (link below) for full details of what is scheduled, where and

when. The festival opens on Thursday May 8th at 6pm with a welcome parade in the Reina Sofia Park, followed by a medieval tournament at 7pm. The festival continues on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with the market and events taking place from 10am until midnight each day. The streets will be packed with visitors and it’s a great way to spend a few hours in town and take in some of the atmosphere and events.
