Mallorca’s September festivities bring vibrant traditions, concerts, and cultural events. Biniamar’s Santa Tecla Fiestas feature children’s games, musicals, comedy, folk dance, fireworks, and lively DJ nights. Binissalem’s Vermar celebrates grapes with parades, grape battles, concerts, and folk performances. Bunyola honours Sant Mateu with games, theatre, choirs, and fireworks. Calonge and Felanitx host Sant Miquel celebrations with giants, wine tastings, and fairs. Palma offers seafood, art nights, symphonic concerts, theatre, and La Liga football. Across towns, music—from jazz and folk to symphony and rock—fills plazas, churches, and beaches.
