Ibiza isn’t all about EDM – Ibiza Rocks brings alternative and indie music to the White Isle. With acts like The Killers, Kasabian, and Florence + The Machine gracing the stage in recent years, Ibiza Rocks attracts an eclectic crowd.

The intimate outdoor venue has a festival vibe with affordable drinks, rock ‘n’ roll style and a young, fun atmosphere. The festival runs for several months, from late March through early October, allowing visitors flexibility in choosing the dates that work best for them.

However, if you plan on going, we advise you to book early to get the best deals, especially for concerts scheduled in April and May before the peak summer season. Tickets for individual concerts, as well as packages including accommodations, meals and open bar options, will be available for purchase through the Ibiza Rocks website.

This is one of the most historic festivals of Ibiza in 2024, taking place over three days during the second week of May. The Ibiza Medieval Fair transforms the old town into a bustling marketplace filled with street performers, concerts, craft markets and parades featuring participants in period costumes.

Visitors can experience what life was like in medieval Ibiza as they walk around the walled area of the historic centre. Craftspeople, artists, and merchants sell their wares in stalls. Fairgoers can browse products ranging from handmade soaps, candles, pottery and jewellery.

Street performers abound, including jugglers, acrobats, magicians, jesters and wandering minstrels who provide live music. Numerous concerts and shows take place throughout the festival, with musicians playing period instruments and actors performing scenes from medieval plays.

Food stalls sell traditional Ibizan dishes and medieval-inspired cuisine, while vendors offer mead, cider and other period beverages.

Thousands of participants – including members of the LGBTQ+ community, allies and families – dress in outrageous costumes and dance to music along the parade route. Floats decorated in rainbow motifs also feature in the parade.

The week leading up to the parade features a packed schedule of concerts, shows, and parties.
