After just 3 hours back at work after my November trip I am dreaming again about holidays.....

Can anyone tell me the dates for this in January 2014 :)

sws97sdg 18-11-2013 12:28

These dates never change, so hopefully someone can check dates... before I can!

Thursday 16th Jan 2014 Sant Antoni Sant Antoni is the patron saint of animals. There are bonfires on 16th & a benediction of animals on 17th Jan.
Friday 17th Jan 2014 Pi de Sant Antoni Pollensa/Port An enormous fir tree is taken through the town/port, through the church to the main square. See Sant Antoni Fiesta.

Yes Mark as SWS says the Sant Antoni Fiesta dates are set in stone, always 16th/17th January. If you have never been over for it i thoroughly recommend you do, it's no secret on the forum that it's my favourite of all the fiestas :D.

On the 16th January Nostalgia will have a huge bonfire and bbq, the a la carte menu will also be available and there will be live entertainment from The Fat Cats Jazz Band :D.

On the 17th during the day they will be serving bacon and egg butties & mulled wine :D.
