Answer
What is the best way to avoid crowds at Palma's Christmas lights switch-on?
The main risk in Palma comes from concentrating too many people in one place at the same time, especially around Plaça d’Espanya and the Avenidas. A more practical approach is to spread the celebration across several locations and use staggered entry times for the busiest spots. Clear signage, visible meeting points and good crowd updates would also help.
