Friday, 10 de January de 2025 - Sunday, 2 de February de 2025

The Fiestas de Sant Honorat, patron saint of Algaida, are one of the most traditional and anticipated celebrations in the municipality. Every year, these festivals combine religious, cultural and popular elements that reflect the essence of the local community and its commitment to the conservation of Mallorcan customs.

The central day of the festivities is January 16, coinciding with the festival of Sant Honorat. The day begins with a solemn mass in the parish church, where the Cossiers, emblematic dancers of Algaida, perform their traditional dances as an offering. When finished, the Cossiers dance again in front of the church, offering a unique show full of color, music and tradition.

The eve, known as the Revetla of Sant Honorat, is marked by popular activities such as the lighting of foguerons, parades with demons and traditional music by xeremiers. Neighbors gather in the square to enjoy a toast accompanied by local products. The night usually ends with a lively firework, starring demons and pyrotechnic effects that fill the atmosphere with emotion and energy.

The Sant Honorat festivities also stand out for their participatory nature, with activities for all audiences: exhibitions, conferences, popular dances and cultural events that reinforce the sense of community. Furthermore, the Algaida City Council organizes these festivities with a sustainable approach, promoting the reduction of waste and the preservation of the environment.

These celebrations are not only a tribute to the town's patron saint, but also an opportunity
