Holy Week 2026 in Mallorca: Tradition, Spring and Freedom with Rent Auto Moto

Easter marks the eagerly awaited start of the new season in Mallorca. As the island awakens to spring, it's the perfect time to discover a unique blend of solemn traditions and vibrant natural landscapes. To fully experience this, having your own vehicle is simply essential.

Holy Week is Spain's most deeply rooted religious and cultural festival. During these days, the streets of Mallorca are transformed with centuries-old processions, sacred music, and an atmosphere of both reflection and celebration.

Mark these key dates for the year 2026:

  • Palm Sunday: March 29.

  • Holy Thursday: April 2 (Holiday).

  • Good Friday: April 3 (Holiday).

  • Easter Sunday: April 5.

No worries: We're open every day!

We know your vacation doesn't stop just because it's a holiday, and neither do we. At Rent Auto Moto, we want your only concern to be enjoying the island. That's why our offices in Cala d'Or will remain open even on public holidays (Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Monday).

Whether you need to pick up your car on the day you arrive or if any questions arise during the April bank holiday weekend, our team will be there to assist you with the same friendly and professional service as always.

Why do you need a car to experience Holy Week?

Mallorca is much more than sun and sand, especially at this time of year. Having your own vehicle with Rent Auto Moto allows you to:

  1. Experience the Processions of Palma: The Sant Crist de la Sang procession on Holy Thursday is a must-see. With your car, you can travel from Cala d'Or to the capital with complete flexibility, without depending on the limited public transport schedules on holidays.

  2. Explore the Gastronomy and Tradition: It's the time for panades, rubiols, and family Easter picnics in iconic locations like Bellver Castle or the Sant Salvador Sanctuary in Felanitx. A car is all it takes to reach these viewpoints and points of interest.

  3. Spring Routes: Take advantage of the start of the season to be among the first to visit the Caves of Drach or explore the Serra de Tramuntana mountains. In spring, the island is greener than ever, and the weather is perfect for driving with the windows down.
