Fira de Pollença 2025: Tradition, Craftsmanship and Local Life in the Heart of Mallorca

This November 8th and 9th, Pollença welcomes visitors to the Fira de Pollença, a fair that blends history, craftsmanship, gastronomy, and local culture. Each year, this traditional event draws hundreds of people who come to experience the genuine character of northern Mallorca.

A glimpse into history

The origins of the Fira de Pollença date back to the 18th century, with the first written record appearing in 1784. Originally an agricultural and livestock market, the fair has evolved into a vibrant showcase of Mallorcan craftsmanship and local talent.

Since 1984, the Mostra d’Artesania (Craft Exhibition) has been held in the stunning Claustre de Sant Domingo, now the cultural heart of the event. It brings together some of the island’s finest artisans, featuring ceramics, textiles, woodwork, and jewelry.

What to expect this year

The 2025 edition introduces new ideas and experiences while keeping its authentic spirit alive:

• High-quality artisan exhibitors, merging traditional and modern craftsmanship.

• Workshops and live demonstrations that reveal ancient techniques.

• Live music and cultural activities across Pollença’s historic squares.

• Local gastronomy, including olive oil, sobrasada, wine, cheese, and handmade sweets.

• A new layout to make the visitor experience more enjoyable and accessible.
