As is tradition, Saint Ciriac, Ibiza's patron saint is honoured this coming Thursday 8 August 2019 with the annual firework display, an occasion that brings together islanders and international visitors alike.
Like every year, throngs of people are expected to gather in Ibiza Town's port area to celebrate the end of the Fiesta La Tierra - an important local festival.
Whilst you can view the explosive action from the town centre, port and shoreline, you can also see the spectacle from the sea, with a superb boat trip offered by Aquabus, along with cava or white wine to toast the display.
Departure times are as follows: 23:00 from Playa d'en Bossa pier, 23:15 from Figueretas dock and 23:30 from Ibiza's port. Tickets can be purchased as you board and cost €25 for adults, €15 for children aged four to 12, with those aged three and under free.
As well as this, several restaurants are offering special celebratory menus and offer great firework viewpoints.
These include Nobu STK Ibiza, Corso Restaurant, A Son de Mar, Nobu Ibiza Bay and the restaurant at Mikasa Boutique Hotel Ibiza. More details on each below.
Other activities of note during the programme, include a giant paella - large enough for 900 diners, a photography exhibition featuring the work of Guillermo Monforte and the "Gold Medal of Ibiza Town" ceremony.
Plaza Reina Sofia will play host to various musical performances over this period. You can find the City Choir of Ibiza (2 August), Carlos Baute performing De amor y dolor (5 August), Ibiza Town's Symphony Band (6 August) and Concert of Ressonadors (7 August). The festivities culminate with the annual firework display.
