The Fira Dolça (“Sweet Fair”) is an annual celebration in Esporles, dedicated to Mallorcan pastries, confectionery, and artisanal treats. Each year, the town’s main streets fill with stalls overflowing with ensaïmades, bunyols, rubiols, crespells, cocas, chocolates, jams, honeys, and liqueurs. It’s a family-friendly event that combines gastronomy with music, folk dancing, and children’s activities, making it one of Mallorca’s most popular autumn fairs.
Tucked into the forested slopes of Mallorca’s UNESCO-listed Serra de Tramuntana, Esporles is a picturesque stone-built town known for its terraced hillsides, fresh springs, and historic estates such as La Granja. Though small, Esporles is rich in tradition, and every autumn it becomes the island’s capital of sweetness thanks to its much-loved Fira Dolça.
Though Esporles’ history dates back centuries, the Fira Dolça is a relatively young tradition, first celebrated in 2005. In less than two decades, it has grown into a flagship event for Mallorca’s culinary and cultural calendar. In recent years, the fair has expanded to include cultural programming such as the Dolça Nit de l’Art (“Sweet Night of Art”), an evening of music, exhibitions, and tastings that kicks off the celebrations.
