Mallorcan Food Fair

On Wednesday 24, in the Trading estate in Palma, the XX edition of the Mallorcan Food Fair will open. It is the most important and popular gastronomic activity of all those held in the Balearics, organised by the Associació Empresarial de Restauració de Mallorca with collaboration by the Mallorca Insular Council, the Balearic Government, the Palma Town Council, the Chamber of Commerce and several companies.

Over 10 days, until April 2, twenty-two restaurants, three cooking schools, nine wine cellars, and six pastry makers, amongst other collaborators, will serve this year nearly 70,000 people who usually attend the Fair to tickle their palates with new and traditional dishes of the island's gastronomy.

But over and above the strictly culinary aspect, the "Mostra de Cuina" is also a cultural forum. In this sense, during the present edition there will be a programme of conferences and wine tasting, that will inform the attending public about important and attractive aspects of the gastronomic and oenological culture of Mallorca.

Visiting times are from 12:30 to 16:00 h. and from 19:00 to 23:00 h.
