Mallorca will host the third edition of the Fona Fall Fest music festival.

PalmFona Fall Fest is a festival conceived, promoted and organized by Fonart Since 2023, the festival has been running throughout the autumn months, focusing on quality, relevance, and avant-garde.

This is a traveling event that aims to move away from the centralized model of large cities and is now in its third year. In previous years, the festival has featured international artists such as Yann Tiersen, Nils Frahm, Lemoncello, and Teenage Fanclub, as well as important names in the Spanish scene such as Andrea Motis and Joana Serrat. This year, the confirmed artists are Zahara, Joan Miquel Oliver & Miquel Serra, and Sunny War.

Why a pomegranate?

The event organizers have included a pomegranate in the lineup this year because autumn in Mallorca "opens up like this fruit: firm skin, a ruby heart. Inside, it holds hundreds of brilliant masterpieces: each one different, all essential."

"That's what Fona Fall Fest is: we open it up and, grain by grain, we unravel music," they point out. From local roots to an international horizon, from intimacy to an electric cry, from tradition to surprise: each artist is a grain, with their own taste, sometimes sweet, sometimes sour, always alive. "The pomegranate reminds us that autumn is not an end, but an explosion of color and abundance; this is our musical autumn," they explained.

JOAN MIQUEL OLIVER & MIQUEL SIERRA: Granada from our home

Pomegranates grow in Mallorcan patios like the songs of Joan Miquel Oliver and Miquel Serra: everyday fruits that hide worlds. Together they burst like an open pomegranate: multiple seeds, impossible colors, flavors that only grow here. Manacor will host the duo's performance on October 17.

ZAHARA: Whisper Grenade

Some open the pomegranate in one fell swoop, others do it grain by grain. That's theVery acoustic From Zahara: intimate songs savored slowly. Each grain is a confession; each bite, a shared secret. You can see it on November 29th in Inca.
