Answer
Where should I park for the Palma patronal festival?
Parking inside the closed zone is not a good idea during the festival weekend. A more practical option is to park outside the restricted area, for example towards Son Armadans or Cala Mayor, and then walk in. That usually means allowing extra time, especially if you are meeting people near the cathedral.
