Neighbourhood festes

Neighbourhood festes are an important part of summer in Ibiza town. Beyond the island’s international nightlife, these local celebrations are organised by residents’ associations, often with the support of the town council, and are a chance for neighbours of all ages to come together. Foam parties are a favourite with children in the summer heat, while the popular paella and the shared supper are classic moments of community life.

For visitors, events like these offer a different view of Ibiza: a local celebration in which families, older residents and young people share the street, the music and the food.
