Guide to San Antonio 2026 in Mallorca: events and schedules in the main towns
We propose a compilation of the most outstanding events of Mallorca's quintessential festival
PalmNo sooner has the Christmas holidays ended than Mallorca is already preparing to host the island's most deeply rooted festival. Sant Antoni, a festival of Christian origin but with a strong popular character that has evolved over time, arrives full of devils, tambourines, and toast, with an extensive program in the main towns where the tradition is lived most intensely, such as Sa Pobla, Manacor, and Artà, which are preparing these days to reignite the spirit.
In fact, for the residents of Artana, Manacor, and Pobla, the years are counted from Sant Antoni to Sant Antoni. Besides these towns, most of the island's villages celebrate with bonfires, parades, and fire runs as part of this festival. We've highlighted some of the most important dates in the villages most devoted to Sant Antoni.
