Santa Gertrudis is famous for its colourful fiesta. For almost a whole month each year, the picturesque village located in the very centre of the island celebrates its patron saint. Fiesta highlights include the horse-riding tournaments, the hike to Santa Agnes and back - and then, on Monday 16th November, the celebratory mass with folk dancing outside the church and a midnight fireworks display.
