In 2000, the first medieval market was organised for the 700 year commemoration of the foundation of the Capdepera Castle by King Jaume II in 1300 AD. The market repeats every year on the third weekend of May.
At the beginning of the summer season the International Nautical Fair comes to Majorca’s Palma Bay. The fair has both floating and dry dock based exhibition areas during 9 days.
The floating area exhibits over 300 sailing boats and yachts from 8 to 45 meters in length.
Majorca is well known for its almond trees, especially during late winter, around February / March, when they are seen covered in white or pink flowers. Majorcan people use their fruit to prepare cosmetic creams, drinks, meals and desserts.
Every year culture, tradition and handcraft join together at the Pottery Fair of Marratxi. This fair started in 1983 and has become an important fair to show all the different ways to treat and work clay. As well as the fair and exhibit tables, the visitors are able to enjoy numerous events such as watching the Giants dance, traditional music and dances, as well as activities to entertain the younger ones.
Every year, classical concerts are organised as part of the cultural activities of the March Foundation. During spring and summer they prepare a cycle of concerts with great variety including classical and popular music. For this year there are 8 concerts planned at the auditorium of The Palau March (March Palace) with free entry if you book in advance.
