Fiestas in Mallorca (Majorca) Summer 2007
Throughout the island of Mallorca (Majorca) you will find a host of fiestas. From the month of June through to September be prepared for a celebration of some kind every weekend. By law live music must finish at midnight inside or out all over the island. Unless provided by the local council. The evenings can be late, perfectly understandable for a variety of reasons. It is cooler after 11 pm and most local people work until 8 or 9 pm.
Each town and village will have a week of "the arts", usually in July or August. A stage will be erected in the main square (often in front of the main church) and entertainment of various kinds will be on going every day. Everything from folk dancing, classical music to rock and roll will be provided free of charge and mostly of excellent quality.
You can usually find an itinerary in the local banks and government offices.
