The Calendar's Note

A Trobada de Gegants (Gathering of Giants) is one of Mallorca’s most charming folk traditions.

The gegants (giants) are large, hand-crafted figures – often representing kings, queens, peasants, or local characters – that parade through the streets accompanied by music and festive crowds.

Each giant is carried by a person hidden inside, who brings them to life with dances and playful movements. These gatherings bring together giants from different towns, turning the streets into a lively festival of color, tradition, and community spirit.

It’s a celebration for all ages – a cultural highlight where folklore, history, and joy meet in the heart of Mallorca’s villages.
