11 may
FairsFree

Historical context

Es Firó de Sóller is a historical reenactment commemorating the battle of May 11, 1561, when the inhabitants of Sóller repelled an attack by Barbary pirates led by the corsair Dragut. On that day, a fleet of pirate ships landed in Port de Sóller intending to plunder the town, but encountered fierce resistance from the valley's residents. Men, women, and children organized to defend their home, and after hours of violent fighting, the people of Sóller managed to repel the attack and rout the invaders. This victory remains in popular memory as one of the most heroic episodes in the history of Mallorca.

Event description

Since then, every May 11th, Sóller relives that feat in a historical reenactment that is now one of the most comprehensive and participatory in Spain. The spectacle begins in the early afternoon with the pirates' landing in the Port of Sóller, where local actors, dressed in period costumes, recreate the arrival of the Barbary fleet with elaborate stagecraft: ships, arquebus fire, war cries, and a collective dramatization involving hundreds of Sóller residents.

The fighting then spills out into the streets of Port and the center of Sóller, with hand-to-hand combat, skirmishes in squares and alleyways, and the thrilling final charge of the Capitans de Sóller that decides the victory. The atmosphere on May 11th is one of total celebration: bars and restaurants open their terraces, the streets fill with visitors, and the smell of gunpowder permeates the air.

Popular participation

What makes Es Firó unique is its deeply popular and community-oriented character. It's not a tourist attraction: it's a festival of the people, by the people, and for the people. Virtually every family in Sóller has a member who participates in the reenactment, whether as a pirate, a defender of Sóller, a musician, or an organizer. The costumes, arquebuses, flags, and sets are prepared months in advance by the various groups in the town.

Official recognition

The Firó de Sóller festival has been declared a Festival of National Tourist Interest, an award that recognizes the most deeply rooted and renowned festivals in the country. Every year, thousands of tourists from across Europe and the Americas travel specifically to Sóller to witness the reenactment, making the town in the valley of orange groves a media sensation for several days. The national and international press covers the spectacle, and videos of the reenactment garner millions of views on social media.

It can also be reached by bus (line 210) or by car via the Ma-11 road through the Coll de Sóller pass (a toll tunnel is available as an alternative). Public transport is recommended on Firó day due to the large crowds. Arriving early at Port de Sóller is advisable to secure good spots in the pirate landing area.

Opening: 03.12.2025 — 19:00
Curator: David Barro

The exhibition “Jannis Kounellis. Labyrinth Without Walls” invites visitors on a journey through memory, the sea, and displacement—central elements in the work of one of the leading figures of Arte Povera. Kounellis, who described himself as “an ancient man and a modern painter,” transforms materials laden with history into poetic landscapes that speak of time, identity, and human experience.

At its core is an installation composed of nine Venetian sails from different periods, arranged like a fan and rich in symbolism: navigation, trade, protection, stories of crews, and the transformation of the maritime world. These are accompanied by other series featuring Mallorcan and Italian sails, stretched and folded over steel frames, preserving the traces of their former life at sea.

Also noteworthy is the series “Albatros” (2001), consisting of fragments of a wooden ship suspended in front of tilted steel plates—a reflection on wear, memory, and the weight of history.

Together, the exhibition forms a labyrinth without walls, a physical and inner journey that connects the artist’s childhood in the port of Piraeus with a vision of the sea as a space of exchange and transformation.

In collaboration with KEWENIG, Palma / Berlin and Archivio Kounellis.

Collectors' and second-hand fair in the gardens of La Misericòrdia

A small fair to browse calmly among books, comics, vinyl records and curious objects in one of the most charming spaces in the center of Palma.

It's a very different option from the traditional flea market for buying useful items, designed more for discovering special pieces and enjoying the atmosphere.

La Fireta dels Encants is a great option if you're looking for relaxed plans, with that element of searching and discovering that collectors' markets offer.

Since it takes place in the gardens of La Misericòrdia, it also lends itself to combining the visit with a stroll through the city center or with other nearby cultural activities.


📚What you'll find

Second-hand books and comics, vintage vinyl records, postcards, collectibles and curiosities.


Why go

A great option if you're looking for something different from the usual flea market: the interesting thing here is to rummage around, find charming pieces, and enjoy a more cultural and collector's atmosphere.


✖️Things to keep in mind

It's not a food market or a fresh produce market, so it works better as a place for a stroll and browsing than for practical morning shopping.


📍Data

Day: first and third Saturday of each month

Setmanal market in the historic center
One of the most famous markets in Mallorca: it occupies squares and streets of the old town and is the only weekly market on the island where you can still see farm animals

Because it is a “complete plan” for tomorrow: local products, clothing, plants, crafts and a lot of village atmosphere (especially in season).

It usually attracts a lot of people. If you want to see it calmly and find better positions, go early and leave the car outside the center to walk in. 

📍 Data

Time: 08:00–13:00
Place:Plaça des Fossar, Plaça de l’Església and nearby streets (Sineu)

Weekly market in Plaça Bartomeu Riera

A very practical neighborhood market for morning shopping, with a simple and friendly format, designed primarily for the daily needs of the residents of Sa Cabana. It focuses on food and readily available items, so it's more of a useful market than a flea market for browsing.

The Sa Cabana market is a good option if you're looking for a quick midweek purchase in a local setting without large crowds.

Having moved to a more central location, it is more convenient to combine with other errands or a short stroll through the town's shopping area.


🧺What you'll find

Food products and basic goods.


Why go

Very practical for everyday shopping, with a local market format and a more central location that facilitates a quick visit.


✖️Things to keep in mind

It's a functional market of a manageable size, designed more for practical purchases than for spending the whole morning browsing stalls. This assessment is based on the type of products and the market's official format.

Day: Wednesday

Schedule: 08:00–13:00
