Hi Miriam i will post times and venues as soon as they are published here.
As for the weather......i will have a chat with the big man upstairs and see what we can do . Suggest you get plenty of sleep before you arrive because you won't get much on your 1st night, ear plugs might be needed .
It's great fun though .

Med777, I think your parents would enjoy seeing the parade of animals in the old town,takes place 1000 Sunday morning and is on a much larger scale than the port. Then there is enough time to make it back down to watch the pine being brought from the beach. We usually eat lunch while it goes around the port and gather to watch the guys trying to climb it. Excellent firework display to music on Sat pm at Sa Pobla for those who might want to venture further afield.

Miriam, Will pop over and say hello, we were on the same flight time a month ago and it arrived 40 mins early, so you should have plenty of time to get organized. Although we've been going out in the winter for over 15 years, this is our 1st visit to the festival, so we'll take it as it comes

this will be our first visit to the festival too and am really looking forward to it..just hope no delays as we are not due in to palma until 5:40 (pm)...so as mentioned before it will be a very quick unpacking of the essentials then head off out.have just had a quick look at the 15 day forecast on Accuweather and it seems to have improved as the week had gone on stating weather for next week varies between 12 and 17 degrees..hope this is right as it will seem tropical after what we have just had

Cathb, As i've mentioned, been going over in the winter (1st feb) for the last 15 yrs, we've had all sorts of weather but always managed a least a couple of days of nice weather.

smiddy, look forward to it and promise to try and be halfway civil ( I thought there was only ONE 6.40 in a day ) !
CathB... I've got everything crossed for u flite to be on time !
sparky... It would appear that I now owe u 2 drinks ! one for the one u bought me... and one for looking after my OH !
Lorenzo...since u appear to be arriving first, I think u better organise our table & get the first round in ! ( only joking ! )
roll on Saturday !

Hi Miriam, hope you arrive ok with your folks!
If Sparky is happy to come up with a suitable meeting time & place, hopefully we could all gather for a well earned drink/chat.
