Mallorca Cinema 2026: Summer start at the Motorworld parking lot

The German-language open-air series starts the season on Friday, May 29 with music, talk and film — new location: this time it takes place in front of the Motorworld in Palma instead of Port Adriano.

Mallorca Cinema moves to Motorworld: Summer kick-off on May 29

Music, talk, party and an open-air film evening — this time not in Port Adriano but on the Motorworld parking lot

On Friday, May 29, a familiar event season gets underway again: the German-language Mallorca Cinema opens its open-air series — and has moved location, a shift also discussed in Cinema Summer on the Balearic Islands: Popcorn, Air Conditioning and Full Houses. This year the announcement turns into a meeting in front of the Motorworld Mallorca: Entre el brillo y los dolores de crecimiento — Un emplazamiento en prueba. So if you expect evening air and the smell of engines, you're not far off: the area in front of the hall will once again be transformed into an open-air stage.

The program is not just a film night. From 17:00 DJ David Gee will be on deck, filling the waiting hours with music. The audience can participate: Hitradio Mallorca accepts song requests that will be played during a half-hour request set. If you want to take part, write to musikwunsch@hitradio-mallorca.com — a small playlist, big boost for the atmosphere.

Before the film there will also be a live segment: at 19:30 a spotlight talk about the 2026 World Cup is on the agenda. The panel will be moderated by Stefan "Schmidi" Schmidt; former pro Holger Gehrke will sit at the table. Further guests are announced; surprises are part of a format like this. For football fans it's a good opportunity to chat before the screening and have a beer in hand.

From 21:00 party singer Joe Verbeek will take the stage. The singer has been active on the island since 2023 and has made a name for himself in the scene. Those who sing along at the concert quickly notice: acts like these give an open-air evening a local tone — it gets loud, slightly chaotic and warm-hearted.

The film starts at 22:00: the drama 'Eine Million Minuten' by Christopher Doll will be shown. The story of a family searching for change and the desire for more time fits mild summer evenings, when you want to keep talking about life topics a while longer before sleep sets in. During the event there is an opportunity to support the foundation 'RTL – Wir helfen Kindern' with a donation.

Practical information for visitors: tickets are available online. Standard seats are priced at €27.50, garden chairs with cushion at €39.50 — each plus fees. Those who still want a physical ticket can find hard tickets at several sales points on the island: in Müller stores, at the German supermarket SAM in Can Pastilla, at Bodega Son Juliana in Santa Eugènia and at Kreißl’s Food Corner in The Circle in Son Bugadelles. Early arrival is recommended; the parking lot fills up quickly.

A small local tip: on the way to the Motorworld it's worth a short stop at Passeig Mallorca to breathe the still-warm sea air. In the evenings a gentle breeze often picks up on the promenade; that's pleasant before diving into the musical hustle and bustle. And a light jacket in your bag is not a bad idea — night temperatures on the coast can drop quickly.

What this means for the island: events like this bring residents, holidaymakers and workers from hospitality and culture together in a place normally dominated by cars and wrenches. It's more than a film; it's a small moment of communal normality in May, an occasion to meet familiar faces and observe new ones. The Motorworld as an alternative to Port Adriano also shows how flexible organizers are with locations — and how important spaces are that offer both room and atmosphere.

Those planning to go should think practically: arrive in good time, check your own blanket or stool (unless using the booked seat), have cash ready for donations and consider travel by public transport or carpooling — parking is limited, especially on weekends. Families benefit from arriving earlier; night owls will appreciate the combined concert and film ticket.

In the end, the hope remains that the evening turns out the way you imagine Mallorca in summer: loud, a bit chaotic, accompanied by music and with enough time to carry a piece of the beach in your mind after the film. A restart in familiar fashion — but in a location that brings a bit of industrial charm together with urban ease. For many, that's the right mix.
