Before the big Sant Jordi celebrations take over Palma, the city invites you to ease into it – slowly, locally, and with that perfect Saturday morning energy.

✨ What to expect
Across three locations in Palma, you’ll find:
🌹 Book & rose stalls from local bookshops and florists
📖 Storytelling sessions for all ages
🎭 Street parades with Tom & Rosa (the beloved caparrots)
🎶 Live music and xaranga filling the streets
👉 It’s a more relaxed, local version of Sant Jordi – perfect if you want to enjoy the atmosphere without the big crowds.
