Es Firo in Sóller Today

It’s second Monday in May and time for one of the island’s most colourful and noisiest festivals – Es Firo in Soller.  It’s a re-enactment of events in 1561 when the Moors invaded the town and the Christians living there successfully fought them off.  The battle begins in the port and makes its way toward the town square where victory celebrations will continue into the night.  You can find details on the loud and boisterous affair, full of fireworks and face paint at: ajsoller.net
