Fira de Sant Tomàs - Mostra de Matances 2026
- Annual, a Sunday in December, part of Sineu's wider winter/Sant Antoni programme
- Plaça des Fossar, Sineu
Sineu's winter fair is built around matances, the Mallorcan pig-slaughter tradition that once stocked larders with sobrassada and botifarró for the year ahead. Around Plaça des Fossar, the day brings live recreations of the old matances process, tastings of fried sobrassada with wine, livestock and craft stalls, and winter dishes like frit de matances and escaldums at local restaurants.
Main fair day confirmed for December 13, 2026 on the Balearic government's official fairs calendar; Sineu's wider Sant Tomàs/Nadal programme (concerts, markets, Sant Antoni) runs for weeks around it.
