Corpus Christi - Ball de les Aguiles i Sant Joan Pelos, Pollença

This religious celebration takes place sixty days after Easter Sunday. The procession begins after Mass, at sunset, in the main church square. 'Sant Joan Pelós' (Saint John the Baptist) leads the procession dressed in a green silk dress with a red cape, a mask, a cross in his hand and a lamb in his arms. He is followed by his two 'eagles' (disciples) – two young women dressed in jewelled white costumes styled with gold – who dance at the front of the procession, behind Sant Joan, while they play the 'castanyoles' or castanets

Sant Joan Pelós also a very old ritualised dance that dates back to the Middle Ages. After the procession, Sant Joan and the eagles do the 'taules', visiting local homes where they're offered sweets.
