International House in the city of Palma organizes a wide variety of social activities for their Spanish immersion students. Such exciting activities include:

• Welcome party for new arrivals
• Excursions to places of interest in and around Palma de Mallorca
• Spanish language films
• Open air concerts by popular local musicians
• Exchange nights at which students can meet and talk with other students who are learning English or German at the school.
• Unforgettable nightlife activities

All these activities, including local transport costs, are included in the course fee!

The program changes every couple of weeks so that students staying for longer periods will not have to repeat specific activities. All students are given a copy of the social program planned for the following 2-week period when they arrive.

A typical 2-week social program may be as follows:

Week 1

• International House welcome party
• Guided tour of the Old Quarter and Cathedral
• Classic train ride to Sóler
• Full-day excursion to one of the island's beautiful beaches

Week 2

• Visit to the Drac caves
• Exchange evening with students from IH Palma
• Night out at the 'tapas' bar or to a disco (food and drinks not included!)
