Fira de l’Albercoc (Apricot Fair)

This fair celebrating Porreres’ most emblematic fruit was launched in 2013. It takes place on a Saturday afternoon in June, with the exact date chosen depending on when the fruit ripens, as no two seasons are alike. The fair opens at 6:00 pm and, alongside the sale of apricots of different varieties, visitors can sample a range of sweet and savoury dishes prepared by the village’s bars and restaurants. A popular competition for apricot cakes and sweets is held, as well as an apricot-splitting contest. Traditional dance performances and other parallel activities round off the programme.

Fira de Tardor (Autumn Fair)

Held on the second Sunday after the feast of Sant Lluc, towards the end of October or occasionally on the first Sunday of November, this fair has established itself year after year as one of the most popular in Mallorca. As well as showcasing the vitality of local businesses, shops and artisans, it is a festive day when the village fills with stalls offering crafts, livestock, agricultural machinery and vehicles. In the week before and after the fair — and especially over the same weekend — the village hosts a wide range of leisure, cultural and artistic activities. For several years now, on the Friday before the fair, the Pla i Llevant Denomination of Origin, based at the Molí de n’Amengual in Porreres, has held a lively wine tasting event. Fair day is also a great opportunity to discover the gastronomic delights on offer at the village’s bars and restaurants, from the classic tapas selections to the more refined dining experiences.

02

Firó

The day after the fair, Porreres celebrates its Firó. This is a more intimate, family-oriented market where most of the stalls belong to local businesses and shops from Porreres, with a few remaining from the day before. It is a great opportunity to explore the local shopping and business scene at a more relaxed and unhurried pace.
