What you cannot miss during Christmas in Palma de Mallorca

Whether you live here, come to visit family or simply want to enjoy an unforgettable holiday, you can't miss any of these plans to experience the spirit of Christmas in Palma de Mallorca like you've never imagined before.

The switching on of the Christmas lights in Palma de Mallorca
Palma is one of the few cities that brings Christmas forward to November with the lighting of the Christmas lights, which this year will take place on the 19th. The act will take place in Queen’s Square and will be accompanied by a light show.

Streets, squares and buildings will be illuminated with millions of lights that will embellish the city at night and flood the main avenues such as the Promenade with colour, and given its distance from the hotel, you will have the opportunity to contemplate them in the most magical and special from our Rooftop with views of the Cathedral and the sea.

Route through the Christmas Nativity Scenes
Going through the nativity scenes at Christmas in Palma de Mallorca is one of the most deeply rooted customs and one that is worth doing. The artisans dedicate months of work to prepare them, so some of the cribs are very elaborate and well cared for. The most outstanding is the Mallorquín Nativity Scene of Cort, although we also recommend you visit the Nativity Scene of the Fundació Sa Nostra, located on Carrer Concepció; the Mallorcan Nativity Scene in Misericòrdia, located in the Cultural Center of Misericòrdia; or the Bethlehem of the Santa Catalina Market, in Plaça Navegació, where children will also have the opportunity to meet Santa Claus.

Christmas markets in Palma
Christmas markets are an ideal option when it comes to buying gifts or taking a pleasant walk. Artisans, designers and merchants offer their handmade products in the different stalls that can be found in different areas of the city, such as Major Square, where you can buy curious nativity figures and Christmas decorations; the Pueblo Español Christmas Market, in which the little ones will have a great time with different children's activities while you enjoy a delicious hot wine or chocolate; or the Las Ramblas market, where we find flower stalls with works of art by local artists and food stalls, from churros to crepes.

Hot chocolate
And speaking of chocolate… There is no better way to warm up and enjoy Christmas cuisine than with an ensaimada or some churros dipped in good hot chocolate. Very close to the hotel you will find several of the best stalls and venues, such as Can Joan de s'Aigo and La Rosaleda, two of the most popular.

Ice rink
The Christmas Park in Port Adriano will host a Christmas market held in the central square and will offer many children's activities, such as an ice skating rink. Other years a giant slide of three meters high and 30 meters long has also been installed, will it exceed its length this year?

The Cavalcade
On January 5, the Three Kings of the East will arrive at the port of Palma after a grand parade before going from house to house delivering gifts. Without a doubt, this is one of the best activities to close Christmas in Palma de Mallorca in style.
