XXXVIII Fira-Espectacle Ses Salines 2025
April 25 – May 30 2025
Ses Salines, a charming town on the island of Mallorca, celebrates its 100th anniversary as an independent municipality in 2025. However, its story began long before, in the hands of generations of farmers, fishermen, and artisans who shaped the land and its people. The Fira-Espectacle is more than a fair—it’s a vivid celebration of community, culture, and continuity. This year’s event carries even deeper meaning, serving as a tribute to a century of resilience and a celebration of Ses Salines’ unique identity through performances, artisan showcases, exhibitions, music, and more.
