La Residencia Hotel & the Majorca Daily Bulletin host a Jubilee party
The Diamond Jubilee celebrations may be over in the UK, but here on Mallorca, we enjoyed a quintessential English garden party at La Residencia Hotel in Deia to mark the British monarch’s 60th year on the throne.
Deia hotel has new permanent attraction
A trip to Deià on the north coast of Majorca is a must for anyone wishing to experience the diversity that this beautiful island has to offer.
Jazz,Tapas, Hed Kandi, Jake Bugg and Nikki Beach all this week in Mallorca
June is upon us now and here in Mallorca that means we have some BIG opening parties ahead of us and the beginning of some of the major events of the Summer.
Traditional fairs, delicious food and art
As visitor numbers to the island calm right down, the streets, beaches and trendy restaurants of Mallorca are noticeably quieter than previous months. The weather is also cooler but the sun still shines (most of the time), making the island an attractive autumn destination.
2017 saw Nikki Beach’s biggest and best White Party to date
Nikki Beach’s White Party has become a world famous social affair and is, without a doubt, one of the biggest events of the year in Mallorca. Anybody who’s anybody wants to be seen at this particular party. This year, I went along to see what all the fuss was about.
Every year, during the second weekend of May, the inhabitants of Soller prepare their muskets, bring out the black shoe polish, and engage in fearsome battles to commemorate one of the town’s greatest historical triumphs. In 1561, the town was invaded by pillaging pirates from North Africa who were set on stealing riches and selling the folk of Soller into slavery. This event is celebrated these days during the annual Soller ‘Fira & Firo’ which honours the victory of the town’s people, (the Christian Sollerics) over the invading Algerian Moors (the Saracens).
Human towers in Majorca
This Sunday we were lucky enough to catch another spectacular fiesta in Palma de Mallorca. Like the festival in Soller three weeks ago and the up coming Nit de Foc in Palma, this is a Majorcan tradition that is more interested in fun and participation than health and safety - the Catalan Castells.
Fiestas, music concerts and beach parties
Summer is definitely here by July, and it's all about the sun, sea and sand for most. Sun worshippers are out in force on Mallorca's beautiful beaches, and there's a real buzz in the air in restaurants and bars on those balmy summer evenings.
The perfect fun afternoon & holiday treat
Nikki Beach are famous for their exceptional parties, and Dubai Meets Mallorca on Saturday 3rd September was yet again another amazing event with a fantastic, fun filled atmosphere.
A wonderful weekend of Mallorcan wines
This was the 13th year of the Pollença Wine Fair which showcases the best in Mallorcan wines. It was held at the Claustre de Sant Domingo in Pollença on 16 and 17 April 2016 and was possibly the most important event on the island that weekend.
Pro Musica performs the music of Habaneras
This is the week of celebration for St Pere – St Peter. All the fishing communities in Majorca revere the name of their patron saint and Soller is no exception. The fiesta of St Pere is in full swing and one of the highlights of the Soller programme takes place on Wednesday 27th June 2012 at 20.30 hrs - a concert by Pro Musica.
All the fun of the fair this Easter in Mallorca
This fun fair (or Feria to the Spanish) is a large-scale amusement park located in Son Fusteret, on the outskirts of Palma de Mallorca between February 27th-April 10th 2016.
Think all things 'orange' this weekend
On 11th and 12th June one of the prettiest towns in Mallorca will once again celebrate the fruit that put them on the map.
Devils, pitchforks, fireworks and fun..
Is there anything as thrilling as the Correfoc? Literally translated as 'fire run', it's a festivity in which people disguised as devils take to the streets with pitchforks loaded with squealing fireworks.
Moors V’s Christians in an epic battle re-enactment in Pollenca
La Patrona Festival – it’s Moors V’s Christians in an epic battle re-enactment in Pollenca
Annual fairs, beach club openings, sporting and yachting events
April is the month when you notice that Mallorca really comes to life again. As temperatures rise above 20ºC, people flock to the island and its beaches to bask in the Mediterranean sun. Even though the sea remains at a chilly 15ºC, you will definitely catch sight of some courageous individuals indulging in their first swim of the year.
Charming art gallery in Mallorca's rural plains
Last weekend saw British-born, international artist Andrew Potter host his first art exhibition at his new gallery at Carrer Major 19, Felanitx.
Promoting Spanish and Catalan literature in the heart of Palma
