Why should I choose Christmas in Menorca?
If you're tired of the cold, drizzly weather of British Christmas time, Menorca makes an excellent alternative. Yes, it's winter, but this Mediterranean paradise still gets plenty of sunshine for you to enjoy. It's also a great time of year to explore the island. With the tourist crowds long gone, you'll be able to follow hiking trails like the Camí de Cavalls or take day trips to secluded coves. If you can't bear to leave Fido at home, this is the perfect time to take your dog to Menorca. In the low season, your canine companion can frolic freely on the beaches.
What are the top events during the festive season in Menorca?
The festive season in Menorca usually starts on the first Sunday of December, when the Christmas lights are switched on in Mahón. This is a spectacular performance, with local acrobats playing the role of the "Llumets", magical light-bringing elves. Expect music, aerial stunts, and a great atmosphere for a family holiday in Menorca. The week before Christmas, there's a large carol concert in Ciutadella, which is an extremely popular event. Next comes Christmas itself, which is traditionally celebrated at home, with a large meal on Christmas Eve. The festivities don't stop until the 6th of January, Three Kings' Day. On the evening of the 5th, the kings come to the island in a huge, family-friendly parade, throwing sweets at the kids who line the streets.
