Every year on March 1, the Balearic Islands come alive with celebrations for Dia de les Illes Balears (Balearic Islands Day). This special day commemorates the anniversary of the Statute of Autonomy of 1983, which marked the official recognition of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, and Formentera as an autonomous community within Spain.

Organisers of the XIII Fira Bona de Palmanyola have confirmed a notable change of direction for the 2026 edition of the event, signalling the beginning of a new chapter for one of the island’s most established village fairs. Taking place from 6 to 8 March 2026 in Palmanyola, the event—traditionally known as Fira Bona or Fira del Cavall—will move away from its long-standing format. Instead, organisers are promising a more immersive approach that reimagines the role of the fair within the village itself.

Every March, the town of Marratxí in Mallorca celebrates the Fira del Fang, the island's premier pottery fair. Now celebrating its 41st anniversary, this edition of the Fira del Fang will take place from March 7 - 15, 2026, in Sant Marçal, Marratxí. This much-anticipated event showcases the rich ceramic heritage of Mallorca, with special attention to the craftsmanship of Pòrtol and Sa Cabaneta, two towns renowned for their pottery traditions.

The Fira d'Andratx is a long-standing tradition in Mallorca that originated as a livestock and agricultural fair. Historically, the event focused on showcasing sheep, chickens, and other domestic animals, brought in by local farmers and peasants. Over the years, this rural gathering has expanded into a vibrant celebration of local culture, crafts, and gastronomy.
