When we talk about markets, the first thing that comes to mind is the square of a small town and the traditional people buying food for their recipes. But all this has changed, because<strong> the market has returned to the city<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mallorca&#8217;s street markets are an excellent way to get to know the island and the customs of the people who live there. At these markets you can fill your basket with fruit, flowers, vegetables, local products, etc. Some of the markets also offer handicrafts, such as leather bags, handmade jewellery, clothes, accessories, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are the <strong>best markets in Palma<\/strong>, and you won&#8217;t have to leave the city to visit them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The organic market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The organic market is one of the best markets in Mallorca and one of the best known. It consists of <strong>15 stalls offering a myriad of organic products<\/strong>, such as fruit, bread, vegetables, sweets, olive oil, wine, cheese, sausages, among others. This was the first organic market established in a Spanish provincial capital and was inaugurated by a consumer association called &#8220;<strong>Lligams<\/strong>&#8220;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The clientele who frequent the organic market want to avoid food contaminated by pesticides and promote small local businesses that work ethically and honestly. This is a good plan you should not miss when in Mallorca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">L\u2019Olivar Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Pla\u00e7a de l&#8217;Olivar you can find this market which is distributed on two levels. On the lower floor there is a market with the essence of a municipal market, which has become the perfect place to do your daily shopping with <strong>quality products and ingredients<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you go upstairs you will be surprised by the various <strong>bars and stalls selling freshly prepared food<\/strong>. It&#8217;s the perfect place to have a vermouth, lunch or even dinner in a very original way and contributing to the market&#8217;s producers. There you will also find a florist&#8217;s, a hairdresser&#8217;s and a toy library for the little ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pere Garau Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Pere Garau Market is not a tourist attraction, but rather it meets the real need of the people of Palma to buy fresh, local ingredients. As Palma is a city characterised by its ethnic diversity, in this market you will find an offer that will allow you to try flavours from the other side of the world, such as Latin America, China, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The neighbourhood in which it is located is very welcoming, so visiting the market is a very peaceful and pleasant experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Santa Catalina Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Santa Catalina Market is a simple market located in the heart of Palma, which offers a wide variety of products in its stalls. Inside you will also find <strong>four tapas bars <\/strong>where you can relax and have a drink after a long shopping trip. The main products sold at the stalls are organic vegetables, fresh fruit, cold meats, fish and seafood.<br>It&#8217;s a neighbourhood market that will give you the assurance that everything you see on the counters has been sourced locally. When you visit Santa Catalina Market you will find yourself in an <strong>ideal place to get a taste of the most authentic flavour<\/strong> of Mallorca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/market-mallorca-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24369\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns ticss-b41658ef is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fairs and markets in Mallorca\u2019s villages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s now time to take the car and start to explore the <a href=\"https:\/\/roig.com\/en\/the-most-beautiful-villages-in-mallorca\/\">charming villages of Mallorca<\/a>, which have a deep-rooted tradition among their inhabitants. In the past, the opportunity to hold a weekly fair or market meant extra income from people coming from other villages, but nowadays it is the <strong>meeting point for all those people who like quality ingredients <\/strong>and support small producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fira del Ram<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fira del Ram is another of the best markets in Mallorca and <strong>one of the biggest fairs in Mallorca<\/strong>. It is held between February and April and has around 200 attractions and stalls where you can buy food, drinks and traditional local products. You can recognise this fair by the huge Ferris wheel that can be seen from many parts of the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Santanyi Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Santanyi is a municipality located in the south of Mallorca, about 50 kilometres from Palma and <strong>every Wednesday and Saturday <\/strong>they hold a market in the Plaza Mayor. The Santanyi market is held in the open air and occupies a large part of the town centre.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the spring and summer months it is the busiest time of the year, as it has become a point of reference and many people come to visit it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flor d\u2019Ametller Fair<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fira de la Flor d&#8217;Ametller (Almond tree fair) is held in <strong>Son Servera<\/strong> and revolves around the flower and fruit of the almond tree, a very well-known tree in Mallorca. This festival takes place in February, as this is the time when the almond tree blossoms, leaving a<strong> carpet of white and pink flowers<\/strong> on the ground. It is held on the Ca S&#8217;Hereu estate and admission is free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/flores-feria.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24374\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Market in Consell<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Consell market is one of the <strong>best second-hand markets in Mallorca<\/strong> and is held every Sunday morning. The town&#8217;s industrial estate is a large area with hundreds of stalls where visitors can find all kinds of second-hand objects, products and clothes. Looking for your new decorative antiques or vintage furniture? Then this may be the best place to find them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Santa Pon\u00e7a Market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although St. Patrick&#8217;s Day is a festival that originated in Ireland, it didn&#8217;t take long for the Mallorcans to take over this celebration, which is all about beer. Santa Pon\u00e7a town hall organises a very festive day each year with <strong>craft markets, children&#8217;s activities, Irish folk music <\/strong>and lots of Guinness beer. Perhaps this is a slightly different market, but traditions evolve and cultures merge.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image aligncenter uagb-block-a37a2a63 wp-block-uagb-image--layout-overlay wp-block-uagb-image--effect-static wp-block-uagb-image--align-center\"><figure class=\"wp-block-uagb-image__figure\"><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/roig.com\/en\/majorca-car-hire\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ofertas-1.jpg ,https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ofertas-1.jpg 780w, https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ofertas-1.jpg 360w\" src=\"https:\/\/roig.zds.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ofertas-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"uag-image-22753\" width=\"2000\" height=\"\" title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image--layout-overlay__color-wrapper\"><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-image--layout-overlay__inner center-center\"><a class=\"wp-block-uagb-image--layout-overlay-link \" href=\"https:\/\/roig.com\/en\/majorca-car-hire\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><h4 class=\"uagb-image-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/roig.com\/en\/majorca-car-hire\/\"><span style=\"color: var(--stk-global-color-25586, #f4f4f4);\" class=\"stk-highlight\">Do you want to rent a car in Mallorca?<\/span><br><br><br>Visit our car rental company<\/a><\/h4><\/div><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-3f18671\" id=\"strong-span-style-color-var-stk-global-color-73091-148250-class-stk-highlight-las-ultimas-ofertas-de-alquiler-de-coche-roig-span-strong\" data-block-id=\"3f18671\"><h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text has-text-align-center stk-block-heading--use-theme-margins\"><strong><span style=\"color: var(--stk-global-color-73091, #148250);\" class=\"stk-highlight\">Las \u00faltimas ofertas de alquiler de coche ROIG<\/span><\/strong><\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-nextend-smartslider3 container\">[smartslider3 slider=&#8221;207&#8243;]<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns ticss-1daac4fb is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Christmas markets in Mallorca<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Christmas markets are undoubtedly one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/roig.com\/en\/what-to-do-in-majorca-at-christmas\/\">best things to do in Mallorca at Christmas<\/a>.
