Events in Mallorca

Local bodegas open their doors for tastings, and restaurants pair dishes with the fresh vintages. It’s cozy, communal, and often ends up with spontaneous live music in the village square.

Olive festival with tastings, olive‑pressing demonstrations, and stalls selling oil and local products. Caimari, a small village nestled in the Tramuntana mountains, is renowned for its olive groves. Every November, the Olive Fair celebrates the harvest season with tastings, olive-pressing demonstrations, and market stalls selling oil, soaps, and snacks.

Puerto Portals celebrates the eleventh edition of Sankt Martin, a traditional European festival that brings together children and families to enjoy a magical evening under the stars and lantern light. We are once again celebrating Sankt Martin with a very special purpose: raising funds for Fundación Rana, a non-profit organisation in the Balearic Islands dedicated to preventing child abuse and sexual maltreatment. How does it work? Register the participating child (aged 4 and over) by purchasing one ticket per child. On the event day, collect your game card at the information booth. Complete the activity circuit: lantern-making workshop, cookie workshop, the Sankt Martin story, and the Sankt Martin walk. Hand in your game card at the information booth. Puerto Portals will donate €3 to the Rana Foundation for each mission completed. As night falls, Sankt Martin appears on horseback, and the youngest children of the harbour begin their search for him through the marina’s streets, lighting up the darkness with their lanterns. The event ends with a delicious hot chocolate and cookies.
