Sant Sebastià is the patron saint of Palma, and the Balearic capital begins the year celebrating its most famous festivities in honor of the saint. Festivities famous for their fire spectacle and their Revetlla, converting the city center in a multiple stage of concerts.
Las Fiestas de Sant Sebastià 2020, organized by the Council City of Palma, will be officially inaugurated on January 11 with the reading of the children's proclamation and the proclamation of fiesta.
Since then, two weeks of an intense program of very varied events follow one of its high points on Sunday 19 with the famous Revetla de Sant Sebastià, which programs more than thirty concerts distributed throughout the city center.
Sant Sebastià 2020 ends on Sunday, January 26 with the Marató Fotogràfica and the Correfoc.
