The deadline for submissions —which can be sent to the Citizen Information Office (OAC) or the office’s online platform, OVAC— is 23 November.

This year’s Mercat Nadalenc will include no more than six shacks devoted to retail: five will go to trades- or craftspeople who live and work on Formentera in winter, and the sixth will be shared by local NGOs. The market runs from 3 December to 5 January 2021, inclusive, and takes place at Sant Francesc’s Plaça de la Constitució.

Vendors will be picked in a drawing among individuals who submitted their application on time and met the required conditions will be held in the presence of the municipal clerk.

The provisional bylaws underpinning the Christmas market and associated vendor application was posted to the regional employment office website today, 17 November.
