👻 Nit de les Ànimes – Stories, Light & Tradition
📍 Across Mallorca
📅 October 20 – November 4, 2025
This weekend, Mallorca welcomes Nit de les Ànimes — the Night of Souls, the island’s ancient prelude to Tots Sants (All Saints’ Day).
The Fundació Mallorca Literària invites families to rediscover the meaning of these ancestral rituals through stories, creativity, and reflection. Dive into the Tradicionari de Mallorca to explore how traditions of life and death continue to resonate in the modern world.
Two special family-friendly activities bring this season’s spirit to life:
✨ “Vida i Mort: Nit de les Ànimes i Tots Sants”
🎨 Creative Lantern Workshop
Learn about the connection between light, life, and memory while creating your own traditional lantern — a symbol of guidance for wandering souls.
