Mallorca bursts into life this week with fire, music and festivity. El Toro’s Fallas ignite the weekend with parades, fireworks and the spectacular cremà finale, while fairs in Andratx and Santa Margalida bring markets, folk dance and local flavour. Palma pulses with On Season Fest, the Fira del Ram funfair and a Palm Sunday procession. Culture lovers can savour Verdi’s Requiem, cutting-edge dance and live gigs island-wide. The week crescendos with Jesucristo Superstar and global sounds in Montuïri—spring starts here, loud and unforgettable.
