On Saturday, September 6, Palma celebrates Patrona 2025 with a big free concert at Parc de la Mar (opposite the Cathedral) from 6:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. The lineup brings together international and local talent with BLOND:ISH and WhoMadeWho (Hybrid DJ Set) as headliners, alongside Lourdes Lourdes and Bibi Smalls. The setup includes an immersive stage, screens, and state-of-the-art lighting. As a new feature, the event will close the six lanes of Passeig Marítim to turn it into a large outdoor dance floor.
A standout detail this year: all six lanes of the Passeig Marítim will be closed to traffic, transforming the seafront into one huge dance floor. For safety glass containers are not permitted, plan accordingly.
Your complete evening: from the concert to the table
When the music winds down, keep the vibes going with a short stroll into the Old Town for a late bite or nightcap. Two nearby options from Grupo La Vasca:
La Vasca (Carrer de Bonaire, 19) – Pintxos & lively terrace
Slide into the buzz of a classic pintxo bar: Rabowich (mini oxtail sandwich), croquettes (try the txipirón), cazuelita de txistorra, or huevos rotos. Sweet finish? The pantxineta or Basque cheesecake. Perfect for sharing plates and swapping highlights from the set.
Pro tip: if you prefer a pre-show snack, La Vasca runs a handy reduced afternoon menu from 4–7 pm on open days—ideal fuel before heading to Parc de la Mar.
Sukalde (Carrer Forn de la Glòria, 5) – Contemporary Basque & signature cocktails
For a more intimate end to the night, Sukalde pairs open-fire cooking with author cocktails—think Basque Negroni or Txakoli Spritz. Go savoury (grilled txistorra with padrón peppers, beef-tenderloin tataki) then share a creamy Basque cheesecake. The courtyard lighting and relaxed soundtrack make it a natural after-concert wind-down.
