Wondering what’s on in Mallorca in October and November 2026? Autumn brings some of the island’s best traditional fairs, food festivals, wine celebrations and sporting events. October highlights include the Campos Autumn Fair, Consell Wine Fair and Raïm Wine Fest in Palma. November’s biggest events include TaPalma (4–8 November), Dijous Bo in Inca (19 November), the Caimari Olive Fair (21–22 November) and the mushroom and rice fairs at the end of the month. It’s also an excellent time for vineyard visits, Tramuntana walks and discovering Mallorca’s restaurants without the summer crowds.
Mallorca At Its Finest
Mallorca in the quieter months is Mallorca at its finest.
The summer crowds have gone, the air is cooler and you can finally find a parking space. But the next few weeks are anything but dull.
Villages are busy with traditional fairs, the olive harvest is underway, local wineries are celebrating the year’s harvest and there is always a good excuse to go out for lunch.
October and November are also when you get a particularly good sense of Mallorca beyond the holiday season. These are the events that bring local communities together, often built around food, farming and traditions that have been part of island life for generations.
Here’s what we’d put in the diary from 22 October through to the end of November 2026, along with a few restaurants and places worth visiting along the way.
Christmas gets its own guide.

This Weekend in Mallorca: 22–25 October
October is probably our favourite month here. If you need a plan for this weekend, here’s where we’d go.
Fira d’Octubre, Campos | 22–24 October
Campos is celebrating 115 years of its traditional autumn fair, with events extending beyond the main fair day. Friday brings an evening market with local food, crafts, traditional dancing and the famous Dimonis de Campos.
Saturday includes a tapas route through the village, live celebrations and fireworks to finish the evening.
A great excuse to head south and experience a proper Mallorcan village celebration.
Fira del Vi & Fira de Tardor, Consell | 23–25 October
Consell sits in the middle of the Binissalem wine region, so this is the one to visit if you’re genuinely interested in Mallorcan wine. It’s also a traditional village fair, with local food, artisan stalls and plenty of people from the surrounding area rather than just visitors.
Raïm Wine Fest, Palma | 24 October
Mallorcan wineries pouring their wines, live music and a setting beside Palma Cathedral. Raïm Wine Fest is an excellent opportunity to discover several local producers in one afternoon without having to drive around the island.
It’s also a good excuse to spend the rest of the day in Palma.
Fira de Santanyí | 24 October
A traditional autumn fair in southeast Mallorca, bringing local produce, crafts and village life together. Combine it with a walk through Santanyí’s sandstone streets, lunch in the village or a drive towards the coast.
The nearby coves are particularly enjoyable at this time of year, when the summer crowds have largely disappeared.
Fira de la Terra, Inca | 24–25 October
Plants, flowers, local produce and a relaxed autumn atmosphere. Inca is easy to reach from Palma, making this a straightforward Saturday morning outing.
Paprikafest, Felanitx | 25 October
This one is for anyone who enjoys understanding Mallorca through its food. Pebre bord is the local red pepper used in traditional sobrassada, and Felanitx dedicates a fair to this important ingredient.
You could visit Santanyí on Saturday and Felanitx on Sunday for a full southeast Mallorca weekend.
November in Mallorca: The Traditional Fair Season
November is a big month for village fairs. Some take over entire towns. Others occupy little more than a square and the surrounding streets. But they all offer something worth experiencing.
Bring cash for the stalls, arrive hungry and don’t make too many plans for afterwards.
Fira de Tardor, Porreres | 1 November
Porreres begins November with its autumn fair, followed by the smaller Firó on 2 November. Expect local produce, crafts and plenty of people catching up over coffee.
It’s an easy way to spend a Sunday morning, particularly if you haven’t explored much of Mallorca’s interior.
Fira d’Època, Inca | 6–8 November
Inca takes its fairs seriously. Fira d’Època is part of the build-up to Dijous Bo, with traditional food, crafts and activities around the town.
It’s a good introduction to Inca’s autumn celebrations if you’d rather avoid the much larger crowds later in November.
Fira de Tardor, Marratxí | 7–8 November
Not far from Palma, Marratxí’s autumn fair at Sant Marçal brings together local food, crafts and handmade products. Marratxí is particularly well known for its pottery, so keep an eye out for local ceramics.
It’s a convenient option if you want to experience a traditional fair without travelling far from Palma.
Fira de la Carabassa, Muro | 14–15 November
Yes, an entire fair dedicated to pumpkins. Muro celebrates the autumn harvest with local produce, food and stalls around the village. It’s one of those wonderfully specific Mallorcan events that makes perfect sense once you’re there.
And it’s a good reason to spend some time exploring the northern part of the island.
Dijous Bo, Inca: Mallorca’s Biggest Autumn Fair
18–19 November 2026
This is the big one. Dijous Bo is one of Mallorca’s largest and oldest traditional fairs, and Inca gets absolutely packed. There are agricultural exhibitions, livestock, food stalls, local businesses, crafts and people everywhere.
The main fair takes place on Thursday 19 November, although the celebrations begin the evening before.
Our advice?
Take the train from Palma. Parking is a nightmare during Dijous Bo, and you’ll be glad you didn’t drive.
If you’re only going to one major Mallorcan fair this autumn, this would be high on our list.
The Olive Harvest: Fira de l’Oliva, Caimari
21–22 November 2026
Caimari sits at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana and has a long association with olive oil. During the Fira de l’Oliva, the village celebrates the harvest with tastings, local producers, traditional demonstrations and food.
It’s one of our favourite reasons to head into the mountains in November.
The village itself is beautiful, particularly at this time of year, and the surrounding landscape makes it easy to turn the fair into a longer outing. Buy some olive oil while you’re there.
It’s one of the better things to bring home from a Mallorcan market, and you’ll actually use it.
Honey, Mushrooms & Rice: The Final November Fairs
The last part of November brings some of Mallorca’s most distinctive food celebrations.
Fira de la Mel, Llubí | 22 November
Llubí’s honey fair celebrates local beekeeping, honey and artisan products. It’s a smaller event in a lovely inland village, ideal for a Sunday morning.
You could easily combine it with lunch somewhere nearby.
Fira de l’Esclata-sang, Mancor de la Vall | 28–29 November
If you like mushrooms, this one’s for you. The esclata-sang is a wild mushroom found on autumn menus across Mallorca, particularly in traditional dishes.
Mancor de la Vall dedicates an entire fair to it, with food, local products and plenty happening around the village.
It’s also a beautiful part of the island to visit at this time of year.
Fira de l’Arròs Pobler, Sa Pobla | 28–29 November
Sa Pobla is famous for its rice, and this fair celebrates it properly. It’s a good opportunity to try arròs brut, Mallorca’s traditional brothy rice dish made with meat, vegetables and spices.
Particularly good on a cool November afternoon.
TaPalma: Palma’s Tapas Festival
4–8 November 2026
Not every autumn event involves travelling to a village. TaPalma brings its annual tapas celebration to restaurants across Palma, with participating venues creating special dishes for the occasion. It’s an excellent excuse to explore the city through its food.
Our suggestion is to choose a couple of neighbourhoods rather than trying to visit everywhere. Spend an afternoon in the Old Town, continue towards Santa Catalina and take your time.
For more ideas on exploring the city, read our Living in Palma guide.
Sailing & International Traditions at Puerto Portals
Puerto Portals has a couple of events worth noting in November.
Dragon Winter Series | 6–8 November
The Dragon Winter Series brings competitive sailing to the marina. You don’t need to know much about sailing to enjoy watching the boats come in.
Have a walk around the port, stop for coffee and stay for lunch if the weather is good. It’s a particularly enjoyable way to spend a November weekend in the Southwest.
Sankt Martin | 14 November
Mallorca has a substantial international community, and Sankt Martin is one of the traditions celebrated here.
The event at Puerto Portals brings a little German autumn atmosphere to the island, with a family-friendly programme around the marina.
If you’re interested in Mallorca’s marina lifestyle, our Luxury Marinas in Mallorca guide explores Puerto Portals and the island’s other principal yachting destinations.
Festa del Vi Novell, Santa Maria del Camí
Late November — exact programme to be confirmed
If you’re interested in Mallorcan wine, keep an eye on Santa Maria del Camí towards the end of the month.
The Festa del Vi Novell celebrates the new wine from the year’s harvest.
Santa Maria is one of the island’s best-known wine-producing towns, making it a particularly good place to spend an afternoon discovering local producers.
It’s also an excellent introduction to central Mallorca, where vineyards, traditional villages and countryside sit surprisingly close to Palma.
Our Central Mallorca Lifestyle guide explores this part of the island in more detail.
New & Noteworthy: Mallorca’s Dining Scene
November is one of the best times to explore Mallorca’s restaurants. With the summer crowds gone, tables are generally easier to come by and the pace is more relaxed.
It’s also a good opportunity to discover some of the island’s newer openings and recently refreshed addresses.
Gran Hotel Maricel
Overlooking the Bay of Palma, Gran Hotel Maricel, formerly Hospes Maricel, has recently undergone a rebrand and redesign.
Whether it’s lunch at Maricel Restaurant or a drink overlooking the Mediterranean at the Seafront Terrace Lounge & Cocktail Bar, it’s an address worth revisiting this autumn.
Capítulo, Palma
In Palma, Capítulo offers something a little different.
Set within the new Casa Roca boutique hotel, this café, wine bar and restaurant occupies a beautifully preserved former stationery shop, complete with original timber drawers and Art Deco details.
Expect modern tapas, artisan coffee and a selection of more than 40 Mallorcan wines by the glass.
It’s the kind of place that makes exploring Palma’s smaller streets particularly rewarding.
OSMA – Table Française, Santa Catalina
Meanwhile, OSMA – Table Française brings French bistro charm to Santa Catalina.
Contemporary French cuisine, an intimate atmosphere and warm, attentive service make it a welcome alternative when you fancy something different from traditional Spanish tapas.
Whether you’re revisiting an old favourite or trying somewhere new, November is a particularly lovely month to enjoy Mallorca’s dining scene at a slower pace.
Just check seasonal opening hours before heading out.
Things to Do in Mallorca Without an Event in the Diary
Not every good weekend needs a festival. October and November are excellent months for enjoying parts of Mallorca that can be less comfortable during the height of summer.
Walk in the Serra de Tramuntana
Cooler temperatures make autumn particularly enjoyable for hiking.
The countryside often becomes greener after the first autumn rains, and the villages around Sóller, Valldemossa, Caimari and Selva are wonderful places to explore.
Even a relatively short walk followed by a long lunch can make a perfect Sunday.
Visit the Wineries Around Binissalem
Autumn is a natural time to explore Mallorca’s wine country.
The area around Binissalem and Santa Maria del Camí has an established wine-producing tradition, with wineries offering opportunities to discover local varieties and producers.
Book ahead where necessary, particularly if you’re planning a tasting.
Spend an Afternoon in Sóller
Sóller is beautiful throughout the year, but autumn brings a different rhythm. The town square, cafés, surrounding mountains and nearby Port de Sóller make it easy to spend an afternoon without a particularly ambitious itinerary.
Rediscover Palma
And then there’s Palma.
The restaurants, cafés, markets and shops that locals use throughout the year are still there.
Santa Catalina remains lively, the Old Town is lovely for a wander and it’s much easier to enjoy the city when you’re not competing with summer crowds.
You might not have a beach day every weekend, but there’s certainly no shortage of things to do.
Local Insight from The Agency RE Mallorca: The Mallorca You Actually Live In
We love summer as much as anyone, but autumn and winter are a reminder that Mallorca isn’t simply a holiday destination.
There are village traditions that have been going for generations, local businesses that stay open all year and communities that have very little to do with tourism.
For anyone considering buying a home here, we’d always recommend spending time on the island outside the summer months. You’ll learn a lot more about what it’s like to live there than you will from a few days at the beach in August.
This is particularly relevant when deciding between Palma, the Southwest, central Mallorca and the island’s smaller towns.
Each offers a different year-round lifestyle.
Our Luxury Homes in Mallorca for Year Round Living guide explores what to consider when choosing a home for all twelve months.

The Best of Mallorca Beyond Summer
If you’re wondering what’s on in Mallorca, October and November are a reminder that some of the island’s most enjoyable experiences happen well beyond the beach season.
The fairs, vineyards, restaurants, mountain villages and local traditions all reveal a side of Mallorca that visitors don’t always get to see, and for those of us who live here, they’re part of what makes the island special throughout the year.
At The Agency RE Mallorca, we believe understanding the lifestyle is just as important as finding the right property.
If you’re thinking about making Mallorca home, explore our Mallorca Area Guides or speak with our team.
We’ll happily help you discover the different parts of the island, and recommend somewhere good for lunch afterwards.
Event dates, programmes and restaurant opening hours may change. Please check directly with organisers and venues before making plans.
