It is a complex that houses a wide variety of shops (fashion, beauty, technology, sports, etc.) where you can find everything from local to international brands, restaurants, a hypermarket and even a cinema where you can watch the latest releases.
The Mercado del Olivar is one of the epicentres of the island's culinary culture. Opened in 1951 and strategically located between Plaça d'Espanya and Sant Miquel street, it is the ideal place to discover the authentic flavours of Mallorca.
If you want to buy gastronomic products in Mallorca, you must visit the Mercado del Olivar, where you will find stalls selling fresh fish and seafood, the best Mallorcan meats, local fruit and vegetables, cheeses and other handcrafted products such as wines. If you don't want to take anything home with you, but still want to taste these delicacies, the market also has bars where you can enjoy tapas made with these foods.
For a more local shopping experience, Sant Miquel and Sindicat streets are a must.

These streets are perfect for discovering local products and taking home a piece of Mallorca.
Although it is very close to the other places we have mentioned, Plaça Major is the perfect starting point for exploring the surrounding shopping streets such as Sant Miquel, Sindicat, Jaume II and Colom. This maze of narrow streets is full of unique shops, from jewellers to fashion and art boutiques. The square itself is also home to many craft stalls, ideal for finding souvenirs and special gifts.
Located in the heart of the picturesque town of Pollença, this market offers an authentic experience for those who want to enjoy a morning of local and authentic Mallorcan shopping, thanks to the variety of traders who come with their stalls every Sunday.
The Pollença market takes place every Sunday from 8:00 to 13:30 and is one of the most popular and busiest on the island. It has around 300 stalls where you'll find everything from gastronomic products to fashion, typical Mallorcan decorations, souvenirs, handicrafts, jewellery, etc. Don't forget to have a drink in one of the nearby bars to recover from the walk and, if possible, take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the promenade and the Port of Pollença.
