Answer

Why is Palma highlighting local crafts in the 2026 Cabalgata?

Palma’s city administration wants the parade to do more than entertain for one night. By including carpentry, blacksmithing, painting, sculpture and tailoring, the event gives visibility to traditional work that is closely tied to Mallorcan identity. The aim is to connect celebration with heritage in a way that feels rooted in the city.
