Sant Antoni / Sant Sebastià fiestas what's on: 16-22 January

The correfoc in Palma tonight (Saturday) has been postponed because of the weather. It has been rescheduled for Sunday, 29 January, as has tomorrow's Sant Sebastià Petit, the children's event that was due to have taken place tomorrow (Sunday). The continuing bad weather may also affect animal blessings that had been rescheduled for tomorrow. The children's correfoc in Puerto Alcudia this evening has also been suspended because of the weather.
