Every Sunday of the year, from 9:00 to 13:30, Pollença's Plaça Major fills with stalls, which carry on through Plaça de ca les Monnares and the surrounding streets. It is above all a market of local produce, with some crafts and other goods, and it is used by locals and passers-by alike.
Fruit, cured meats and bread
Most stalls sell food: seasonal fruit and vegetables, cured meats, cheeses, olives, bread and sweets. Among them are some selling crafts and manufactured goods. Entry is free.
Arrive before ten
Come early: first thing you can still park near the centre and the fruit stalls are fully stocked. If you are staying at the Hotel Juma, the market is set up in front of the door.
The whole morning in the centre
The market fits in with everything else a few steps away. The Calvari stairway starts five minutes from the square. The Museu de Pollença, in the old Sant Domingo convent, is open on Sundays from 10:00 to 13:30 and admission is free.
Wednesday in the Port and the night market
If you are staying in Port de Pollença, the market there is on Wednesday, at the same time, from 9:00 to 13:30. It was officially established in 1984, although informal selling stalls had existed since the 1950s, and in summer it fills with visitors. From June to September there is also a night market on the Port's seafront, from 19:00 to 24:00, with about fifteen stalls.
Two fairs in the cloister
Pollença holds its fira normally on the second Sunday of November, with fair days from Saturday to Monday. The first written mention dates from 1784, and since 1984 there has been a crafts show in the Sant Domingo cloister. In April, in the same cloister, the Fira del Vi brings together wines from Mallorca: it has been organised since 2004 by the Vi Primitiu association with the town council.
Tips
