Where does the Formentera Guitar Festival take place?
As every year, the festival takes place in the church square of Sant Ferran, a small, charming village in the centre of the island, easily reachable by car, scooter or public transport from anywhere on Formentera. If you don’t know the area yet, take the chance to visit the Faro d’en Pou, the Sant Ferran lighthouse, one of the most charming spots in the village.
A bit of history
The Formentera Guitar Festival is a classic blues, jazz and rock event that has been running since 2008, driven by the Guitarras de Formentera association. Each night usually ends with a jam session where the guest musicians all join together on stage, creating a truly unique atmosphere.
How to get to Formentera by ferry for the festival
If you’re coming from Ibiza to enjoy the festival, keep in mind that September is back-to-school season and there tend to be fewer sailings than in peak summer, so we recommend booking your ferry ticket in advance.
