Fiestas on Mallorca: more than beach and sun

Mallorca celebrates all year round: in January the fires of Sant Antoni and Sant Sebastià burn, in May Sóller re-enacts the pirate battle of 1561 at Es Firó, in June the beaches light up for Nit de Sant Joan, and autumn brings wine festivals and the great ferias of Inca and Sineu.

This page collects the island's traditional, annually recurring fiestas with concrete dates, exact locations and practical tips. We update the dates as soon as the municipalities confirm them officially.
