Alaior lights up with a thousand candles: a night to savour the essence of Menorca

If you are looking for a unique experience during your stay in Menorca, mark this date on your calendar: Alaior’s Night of Candles. On May 7th, the streets of the historic town centre will glow with candlelight, music and Mediterranean charm in an evening that blends heritage, gastronomy and emotion.

Walking through the cobbled streets illuminated only by candles is a wonderful way to discover the soul of this Menorcan town. Restaurants, bars and terraces will present special gastronomic offerings for the occasion, perfect for tasting local products, island wines and creative reinterpretations of traditional cuisine.

The event transforms Alaior into an intimate and elegant setting, ideal for travellers seeking more than just sun and beaches. Culture, architecture and Menorcan identity come together in a magical evening that invites visitors to experience Menorca slowly, authentically and through all the senses.
