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.

Blessings, torrades, ximbombas, fireworks and climbing a 20 metre tree are all things you may witness in Mallorca during the week of Sant Antoni.

On the third Thursday in September, a selection of Palma’s art galleries open their doors to the public free of charge, for the cultural extravaganza that is known as the Nit de l’Art.

On 11th and 12th June one of the prettiest towns in Mallorca will once again celebrate the fruit that put them on the map.
Soller and its hidden valley celebrate all things orange in June with the Fiesta of the Orange. From the 2nd to 17th June, both Soller & Port de Soller go back to their roots and give the orange the place in its calender that it deserves. Soller has a micro climate and water supplies that produce the best oranges.

Casa Font i Roig is one of the many historical dwellings that have been converted into small boutique establishments in Mallorca.

So, on a warm summers evening, we went along to try Casa Font i Roig’s Friday night BBQ bonanza.
‘Sa Rua’ is one of Palma’s biggest spectacles. Each year, dozens of floats and carnival goers covering a range of themes parade through the streets of the city. With 42 themes and 16 floats this year, 2018 was the biggest yet!
Port Calanova celebrated its 40th anniversary this weekend by treating the public to a wide range of water sports and a giant paella.
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.
The Fiestas des Vermar celebrate the end of the grape harvest season in Binissalem, turning the village into a lively hub of festivity for nearly three weeks each September.
