Answer

Where do people celebrate Cologne Week in Playa de Palma?

The main activity is around the Bierkönig and along the Schinkenstraße, with Schinkenstraße now seen by some as the new center of the action. The nearby Bierstraße used to play a bigger role, but the mood has clearly shifted toward the surrounding party streets. For something a little calmer, Et Dömsche near the Bierstraße offers a more low-key Kölsch soundtrack.
