Nit de l’Art 2026 | 30th Anniversary

For one evening every September, Palma transforms into one giant open-air gallery.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary, Nit de l’Art returns on Saturday, 19 September, inviting locals and visitors to experience contemporary art across galleries, museums, historic buildings and cultural spaces throughout Palma and beyond.

What began in 1997 as a pioneering initiative has grown into one of Europe’s most celebrated contemporary art events, officially opening Mallorca’s autumn exhibition season. Today, it brings together artists, galleries, collectors and thousands of visitors for an evening where the island’s cultural scene truly comes alive.

From 18:00 until 23:00, galleries across the city will open their doors with new exhibitions, artist presentations and special events. Alongside the official gallery programme, visitors can also enjoy exhibitions at leading cultural institutions, free guided tours in several languages, concerts, artist talks and collaborative projects hosted across Palma and other municipalities.

This landmark edition also introduces a new visual identity for the festival and welcomes a66 Gallery as the newest member of Art Palma Contemporani, further expanding the event’s contemporary art network.

Whether you’re a dedicated collector, curious first-time visitor or simply looking for one of Mallorca’s most atmospheric evenings, Nit de l’Art offers a unique opportunity to explore the island through creativity, conversation and culture.

The Calendar's Note

Founded in 2004, Art Palma Contemporani (APC) is the association of contemporary art galleries in Mallorca. It organizes three annual highlights: Nit de l’Art (September), Art Palma Brunch (March), and Art Palma Summer (June), showcasing local and international talent and strengthening Mallorca’s position on the global art map.

The Calendar Mallorca is thrilled to be an official media partner, supporting the communication of the best events, gallery tours and happenings during these three unique occasions, as well as in the days leading up to and following the events.

La Nit de l’Art started in 1996 and has since become an essential cultural celebration. The event highlights the importance of contemporary art in society, emphasizing inclusivity, dialogue, and cultural values like tolerance and peace. It offers a unique opportunity for the public to engage with the work of both emerging and established artists, bridging local and international contexts.

In addition to this event, Art Palma Contemporani organizes other joint gallery openings, such as the Art Palma Brunch in March and the Art Palma Summer in June. These events are evolving and expanding, offering new and innovative artistic experiences.
