Answer

Do Mallorca’s January festivals still matter if you are not religious?

Yes, they can still matter because they are also about shared memory, community and local identity, not only church practice. In Mallorca, some people connect to the festivals through family, village life or the chance to take part in something collective, even if they do not relate to the religious side.
