In 2018, the City of Son Servera recovered an old figure that has always been very present among the people of the town. It is En Piculín Cap d'Olla, a ninot that formerly, for these fiestas, hung in the air from a tube that went from wall to wall and the children, with some strings from the ground, made him dance and somersault. With the Spanish Civil War this tradition disappeared.
Now, En Piculín Cap d'Olla becomes the symbol of the Festes de Sant Joan of Son Servera, which are celebrated from June 14 to 24 with a program full of refreshing and fun proposals.
