A Market Alive with Colour and Tradition
The Beating Heart of Fridays
Every Friday morning, the streets and squares of Son Servera transform into one of the livelest markets in Mallorca. From early hours until around 1:00 pm, traders fill the town centre with stalls selling everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to artisanal crafts. The atmosphere is vibrant, drawing both locals and visitors who come to shop, socialise, and enjoy the festive spirit.
Local Produce and Flavours
The market is especially known for its fresh local produce, with stalls overflowing with seasonal fruits, citrus from the Sóller valley, almonds, olives, and cheeses. You’ll also find traditional charcuterie, fresh bread, and handmade ensaimadas — perfect to sample as you browse. For those looking to take home a taste of Mallorca, bottles of local olive oil, wine, and herbal liqueurs are popular buys.
More Than Just Food
Beyond the produce, the market offers a variety of clothing, leather goods, jewellery, and crafts, many made by local artisans. Street musicians often add to the lively ambience, creating a festival-like feel. It’s a place where shopping becomes as much about the experience as the purchases.
A Weekly Tradition Worth Experiencing
For holidaymakers staying nearby in Cala Bona, Cala Millor, or along the east coast, a Friday morning trip to Son Servera is highly recommended. The market not only provides a chance to shop but also to experience authentic Mallorcan culture and mingle with locals. Arrive early to enjoy the best atmosphere, then relax in one of the town’s cafés once you’ve filled your basket.
