Prize "Rei En Jaume 2023"

The “Premis rei En Jaume 2023” has come to its 21st edition! These awards are promoted by the Department of Culture of the Calvià Town Hall with the aim of encouraging artistic creation in different disciplines and to boost the cultural activity of Calvià. The “Premis rei En Jaume” is part of the larger festivities called Fiestas del Rei En Jaume, the most representative cultural event of Calvià, commemorating the landing of the troops of King Jaume I on the coast of Santa Ponça in 1229.

Participants can choose among four different categories, each with its own winner and prize: photography, theater, poetry, and comics. Although the theme is free in all categories and although it is not compulsory, the jury will especially value the presence of Calvià in the theme of the participating works or the relationship of these with the municipality, either in a literal or metaphorical way.

The artists participating in the categories of comics and photography can present their application from the 5th to the 15th of June.

For theater and poetry, the applications are open from the 26th of June to the 6th of July.
