This weekend, Mallorca bursts with activity, especially in Palmanova and Soller. Europe Day on Saturday, May 10 in Palmanova features an artisan market, children’s activities, live music, and festive processions along the seaside promenade. In Soller, the annual Soller Fair runs May 9–12, with parades, folk dance, concerts, and cultural events. It culminates Monday with Es Firó, a dramatic reenactment of the Moors and Christians battle, including processions, beach landings, and village skirmishes—one of Mallorca’s most iconic historical festivals full of local pride and pageantry.
