The traditional "Fira del Fang de Marratxí" is held every year during the first fortnight of March in the facilities of Ses Tres Germanes.

The fair includes a wide sample of pots, jugs, plates and all kinds of objects made from clay. These have been made for many years by the small family workshops of the municipality, in the area of Sa Cabaneta and above all, in Pòrtol.

The production of pots, helped by the abundance of red clay in the surroundings, has converted "the clay industry" into the most characteristic element of Marratxí and therefore the prestige of the traditional Pottery Fair, organised by the Marratxí Town Council.

The programme of the fair includes demonstrations, workshops, exhibitions, conferences, competitions, music, dancing...
