Es Cal\u00f3 de Sant Agust\u00ed will once again celebrate one of the<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0most cherished events on its festive calendar this Saturday, 29 August. The small village of Formentera will honour its patron saint, Sant Agust\u00ed, keeping alive a tradition that brings locals and visitors together to enjoy folk culture, music and a strong sense of community.<\/p>\n

As usual, the celebration will take place on the last Saturday in August, regardless of whether or not it falls on the exact date of the saint\u2019s feast day. In this way, Es Cal\u00f3 preserves a tradition that allows everyone to enjoy all the events over the course of a single festive day.<\/p>\n

This year, the Associaci\u00f3 Cultural Es Pastorells<\/strong> will be responsible for organising the activities. The programme will combine the religious side of the festivities with ball pag\u00e8s, traditional food and live music, all against the unique seaside backdrop of Es Cal\u00f3.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]The festivities will also help support traditional culture.

Es Pastorells, 50 Years of History<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The Associaci\u00f3 Cultural Es Pastorells<\/strong> is one of the groups closely involved in preserving and promoting Formentera\u2019s traditional heritage. Its balladors and sonadors regularly take part in popular celebrations across the island and frequently perform alongside Es Xacoters.
\nThe association brings together different generations and keeps traditional dances, music, clothing and instruments alive. Its story began in 1976<\/strong>, at the Mestre Llu\u00eds Andreu school in Sant Francesc, as an initiative designed to teach younger generations the traditions of their elders.<\/p>\n

To mark its 50th anniversary<\/strong>, Es Pastorells was awarded the Gold Medal of Formentera<\/strong> on 24 July, the island\u2019s highest distinction. Presented during the official Diada de Formentera celebrations, the award recognised five decades of dedication to preserving, promoting and passing on the island\u2019s cultural heritage.
\nThe Sant Agust\u00ed festivities will provide another opportunity to support this work, as the money raised from the sale of drinks and sandwiches will help fund the association and ensure its activities can continue.<\/p>\n

Music to Sing and Dance Along To<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Esta me la s\u00e9<\/strong> is an Ibiza-based band formed in 2010 that blends a variety of musical styles. Their sound incorporates influences from pop, rock, electronic music and reggae, although much of their appeal comes from performing songs that audiences know and love.
\nTheir repertoire focuses particularly on Spanish music from the 2000s to the present day and includes covers of bands and artists such as La Oreja de Van Gogh, Estopa, El Canto del Loco and Fito y Fitipaldis.<\/p>\n

In Es Cal\u00f3, audiences can look forward to a concert made for singing and dancing along. The band will combine their own songs with well-known covers from the Spanish music scene, providing the soundtrack to the final part of the celebration.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”10″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”42309″ animation=”None” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” img_link_target=”_blank” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”https:\/\/www.trasmapi.com\/?origin=www.4mentera.com&promo=4mentera&lang=en”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” centered_text=”true” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”34605″ animation=”None” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”100%” max_width_mobile=”default” img_link=”https:\/\/www.4mentera.com\/en\/car-scooter-hire-formentera\/”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_column_text]\n

A Celebration Well Worth Experiencing<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Personally, I believe the Sant Agust\u00ed festivities in Es Cal\u00f3 are a perfect reflection of the character of Formentera\u2019s traditional celebrations. Their charm lies precisely in their small scale, friendly atmosphere and blend of tradition, local food, music and village life.
\nAll of this takes place in a setting that is hard to beat. Es Cal\u00f3 de Sant Agust\u00ed, with its seafaring character and privileged location by the sea<\/strong>, provides a beautiful backdrop for enjoying an intimate celebration just a few metres from the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n

Year after year, the last Saturday in August is a wonderful opportunity to visit Es Cal\u00f3 and take part in a simple, traditional and authentic celebration. In 2026, it will also provide the chance to support Es Pastorells and help ensure the continuity of Formentera\u2019s folk culture.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][image_with_animation image_url=”37680″ animation=”Fade In” hover_animation=”none” alignment=”center” border_radius=”none” box_shadow=”none” image_loading=”default” max_width=”75%” max_width_mobile=”default”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_spacing=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ font_color=”#333333″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”3\/5″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”10″][vc_column_text]\n
