Sorry for the short notice, but only just been able to get this programme...
Yesterday, Thursday, was the inauguration & it continues today, tomorrow & Sunday.
A bit like the recent fiesta n Torrevieja with little tents etc.
The sevilliana dancing is at 11pm but here's the programme - sorry its in spanish.

Its in the fair ground, which is last road on left as you drive through Formentera on road out of Rojales - past indoor market/auction room.
Today's events:-
Pasacalles will be the bands marching around the streets of the town.
The Ofrenda floral, would be a floral offering, perhaps at the church?
I don't know what everything is - i.e. 'Maping' I think is a new thing using light to make project movng picture etc, on buildings, but could be wrong.
Then the dance show at 11pm will be by Mary Luz school and music group Algazara at midnight followed by open air disco.
Tomorrow:-
Mass
Then the music bands will 'collect' the queens - i.e. march out to wherever they'll be and process back with them.
Then the procession of their Patron saint.
And finally fireworks at 10pm.
