AT THE HEART OF ISLAND LIFE

By Claire Miller
Each July, the coastal town of Sa Coma on the eastern shores of Mallorca comes alive with a celebration that reflects the growing diversity and warm hospitality of the region. As part of the Festes de Sa Coma, the Nit Multicultural stands out as one of the most anticipated evenings, blending international food, music, and culture into one vibrant street festival.
The Nit Multicultural has been a fixture of Sa Coma’s summer festivities since at least 2013, originally conceived as a way to celebrate the area’s cultural diversity - both local and international. What began as a small community gathering has steadily evolved into a major event. By 2018, it featured over 25 stands offering global cuisine, folk music, and traditional dances. Each year, it continues to grow in scale and creativity, now drawing visitors and residents from across the island.
What to Expect in July 2026
The Nit Multicultural takes place on 23rd and 24th July, as part of the week-long celebrations honouring Santa Maria & Sa Coma. The event is hosted along Avinguda de les Palmeres, the main promenade in Sa Coma, which transforms into a bustling hub of food and festivity.
Visitors can sample dishes from 27 food stalls representing countries from -
Mallorca, Basque Country, Extremadura, Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Ireland, Hungary, Greece, Morocco, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, the United States, China and India.
