Get to the best fairs of Mallorca 2017 by taxi straight from Pollensa

Autumn has arrived and during this time also arrive the “fires” of Mallorca, the hallmark sign of the island. The fairs are a great opportunity to get to know the charming towns of Mallorca, but mainly to discover the authentic products of each area.

Although many believe that the island only has sun and beaches, Mallorca is much more than that. As the sun goes down and the days become a little grey and shorter, arrives the season of the fairs. Each area has its own “fira” where a great display of things are on offer such as fresh produce, products, materials and you can even see cultural acts which are unique to each town.

In continuation, we want to recommend some of the fairs which are celebrated very soon so that you can plan a cultural and gastronomic weekend.

 

Fira de Pollensa

The Fira de Pollensa is one of the oldest and most attended fairs on the island. This year it is celebrated the second weekend of November and its first ever recorded date was in 1785.

The fair stands out for its Mallorcan tradition with traditional dances, xeremies music which is a type of bag pipe and daemon parades.

On the same weekend there is the Fira d’Artesania which will be held in the Claustre de Santo Domingo, this year it will celebrate its 34th edition.

The artisans put on display original pieces and mix them with some items from today. The photographic exhibitions or the workshops are also the main characters of this fair.

If you decide to get to this precious town you have small charming hotels which give a warm welcome, such as the Hotel Son Sant Jordi, a rural hotel that is located in the urban centre of the town and is made up of a collection of houses from the 17th Century. It would be the best option for your holidays.
