New Year's Eve celebrations in Mallorca are extremely wide-ranging - from the popular festivities in Palma, with concerts and performances throughout the city, to more exclusive private events and parties, where luxury takes centre stage.
This isn't surprising on an island like ours, so full of contrasts, where all our visitors will feel completely at home.
Mallorca offers many different attractions, 365 days a year. But why is it a good place to spend New Year's Eve?
Palma de Mallorca gets far fewer tourists in winter, so you can enjoy the city at your leisure, in a quieter and less crowded atmosphere.
This is a great advantage, whether you want to visit monuments, book a table in a restaurant, go shopping, or simply stroll around the beautiful historic centre.
The same is true of the island's villages and the Tramuntana mountain range, which you can explore much more easily, without any parking problems.
Moreover, unlike other parts of mainland Spain, temperatures in Mallorca during the winter are usually quite mild, so you can enjoy your end-of-year getaway to visit the mountains or take a stroll along the beach.
Mallorca is one of the main culinary hotspots in our country, and any time is the perfect time to sample the dishes of some of its best restaurants, which offer special menus based on tradition or more innovative dishes at this time of year.
A few of the restaurants in Mallorca that are worth visiting on your New Year's Eve getaway in Palma are The Merchants, Neo Tapas & Cocktails, Bistró Esencia, Vida by UM and La Malvasia.
Other recommendations are Suculenta (Sóller), Adelfas by Jens (Santa Ponsa), and Latitud 39 (Puerto Andraxt).
Do you enjoy shopping? If so, Palma is sure to become one of your favourite cities, as it has such a wide range of shops.
If you're looking for original last-minute gifts, then you should try out Rialto Living, and its great selection of decorative items, books, fabrics, and perfumes.
If it's fashion you want, then ROUGE Mallorca takes luxury shopping to a whole new level and it's a must if you're looking for timeless, elegant items or accessories for a party or any other special occasion.
Meanwhile, in Farinelli Boutiques, you'll find a wide selection of clothes by leading European brands.
Decoration lovers will find original articles in the Müller supermarkets, while Deli Mallorca, Mundi Culinario, Islavinos, and La Pajarita are just some of the shops you can visit to buy wines, delicatessen products and local and artisan foodstuffs.
Palma sees the year out in style, and it's one of the best places to celebrate the New Year in Mallorca.
After dinner, many locals gather in the Plaza de Cort, in front of the Town Hall, to eat the traditional twelve grapes.
Before that, in the evening, people usually meet up with friends and stroll through the central streets to the Plaza Rey Juan Carlos I, where they can enjoy a variety of shows and live music.
Why not take the opportunity to stroll around the streets, enjoy the festive atmosphere and have a drink in one of the many bars on offer?
After the chimes, it's traditional to head to the top of the Cathedral to watch the fireworks display in this beautiful setting, which will become one of the most idyllic images of your New Year's Eve getaway to Mallorca.
And if you decide to spend the whole night in a pub or a discotheque, be sure to recharge your batteries before returning home. In Palma, the custom on the first day of the year is to have a delicious ensaimada for breakfast accompanied by hot chocolate.
