If you are looking for things to do in Ibiza in November, this week proves the island does not switch off when the summer crowds leave. Between Monday 9 and Thursday 12 November 2026 the calendar fills with underground cave tours, a village wine festival, children's storytelling, gallery openings, trail running and a handful of intimate live music nights. Here is our pick of the best events in Ibiza this week, with the practical details you need to plan around them.
Underground Ibiza: Can Marçà Cave Tours (Daily, 10:30)
The most reliable plan of the week is also one of the most atmospheric. The Can Marçà Cave Tour runs every morning at 10:30 (it is on the programme for 9, 10, 11 and 12 November) from €9 per person. The cave sits on the rugged north coast, and a guided visit takes you through chambers shaped by water over thousands of years, with lighting and a short sound-and-light show that make it a good rainy-day option for families.
Tips: the cave stays cool all year, so bring a light jacket, wear shoes with grip, and book ahead through the event page on Ibiza Calendar, since small groups fill the morning slots quickly. Pair the visit with lunch in nearby Port de Sant Miquel or a drive along the north coast for an easy, scenic half-day.
Wine, Tradition and Village Life: Festa del Vi Pagès de Sant Mateu (12 November)
Autumn is the season when Ibiza's rural calendar comes alive, and on Thursday 12 November from 18:00 the Festa del Vi Pagès de Sant Mateu 2026 celebrates the island's farmhouse wine. Vi pagès is the traditional, unpretentious red made by country families, usually enjoyed at long tables with local bread, cured meats and conversation. Sant Mateu, in the island's quiet rural west, is exactly the kind of village where this tradition still feels alive.
Entry is listed as free. Go with an appetite, arrive early to find parking along the narrow rural roads, and bring cash for tastings and snacks. If you enjoy this, our guide to Ibiza wine and hierbas covers the island's vineyards and liqueurs in more depth.
Culture and Conversation: Exhibitions, Storytelling and Talks
Ibiza's cultural scene is at its best in the quiet season, and this week offers several free ways to dip in.
- Exhibitions: the long-running Exposición de Hans Grass and Exposición de Stefan Brüggemann are both listed from Tuesday 10 November, alongside Exhibition: Details of Ca n'Andreu des Trull, which highlights the architectural and rural details of a traditional Ibizan house. All three are free entry.
- Contes de Tardor: La gallineta vermella: a free autumn storytelling session for children, at 17:00 on Monday 9 November in Jesús and again at 17:00 on Thursday 12 November in Santa Eulària. A lovely, low-key family outing.
- La Mar ens Mou (12 November, 18:30): the MARE conference days on marine conservation through photography and film, a good fit if you care about Posidonia meadows and the sea around the island.
- Medicinal wild plants of the Balearics (12 November, 19:00): a presentation of a guide to the islands' wild medicinal plants by author Marc Moll, which pairs well with a countryside walk the next day.
Check each event page for the exact venue and any last-minute changes before you set out, as small cultural events sometimes move rooms at short notice.
Get Moving: Group Social Trail Run (Wednesday 11 November, 09:00)
For something active, the Group Social Trail Run on Wednesday morning starts at 09:00 and costs just €4. A social run means a relaxed pace, regroups at the junctions and a friendly mix of locals and residents, which is a great way to see Ibiza's pine-covered trails without worrying about getting lost. November temperatures are ideal for running, so bring water, a light layer and trail shoes. For more outdoor inspiration, see our guide to autumn hiking in Ibiza.
Live Music and Evenings Out (Thursday 12 November)
Thursday evening is the week's busiest night for music, and it is refreshingly small-scale:
- Héctor Roldán at Cas Costas (20:00): melodic songwriting and pop in an intimate setting, listed with free entry.
- Ídolos de barro at Can Jordi (20:00): a concert of original songs from a local band.
- Super Sharp Shooters at Ibiza Vinyl Club (22:00): the vinyl-focused club continues its autumn programme, a good pick for anyone who prefers records to a big dance floor.
- Happy Hour at Es Birra (from 19:00): an easy way to start the evening with a drink in a relaxed setting.
You can also catch El Hipnotista at 21:00 on 12 November for a night of stage hypnosis, a crowd-pleaser if you want something different with friends.
Practical Tips for November Events in Ibiza
- Check times and venues on the event page the day before. Many winter events are run by small organisers and schedules change.
- Rent a car or plan taxis. Public buses run reduced timetables in winter, especially in the evenings and to rural areas such as Sant Mateu.
- Dress in layers. Days can be warm and sunny, but evenings and caves are cool.
- Book the paid activities. The cave tour and the trail run have limited places.
- Pair events with local food. Many restaurants and bars reopen for the Friday-to-Sunday stretch even in the quiet season, and the island's traditional dishes taste best now (see our guide to traditional Ibiza food).
