Why Mallorca is a wine lovers haven
Mallorca offers more than just beaches and stunning landscapes. Over 70 local wine producers create award-winning wines within a 60km radius. A massive 8 million bottles are produced annually in Mallorca, across diverse terrains. The Fira del Vi wine fair in Pollensa allows visitors to sample the latest creations.
Winter in Mallorca
Mallorca offers more than just summer fun. Winter brings tranquility, seasonal fairs, lush green landscapes and even the odd snow flurry. With mild temperatures and few tourists, it’s the perfect time to sightsee, hike and bike.
All the Fun of the Fair…
Mallorca hosts a diverse array of fairs throughout the year, showcasing the island’s rich culture. These events feature food and beverage themes, artisan stalls, traditional dancing, and more. The annual “Fira del Ram” in Palma marks the start of the fair season, with other notable fairs celebrating almonds, oranges, wine, and more across different villages.
Visca Pollença! The battle of the Moors and Christians
During July and August, several towns in the north of Mallorca host lively festivals with open-air concerts and firework displays, but Pollença’s “La Patrona”, is the one that shouldn’t be missed. The celebrations include a spectacular battle reenactment.
