The spirit of Christmas is rolling again through Palma on rails – with the Palma Christmas Train, an experience for the whole family that invites you to stroll under festive lights and rediscover the city in its most beautiful season. This initiative is part of the "Palma, tot un centre de diversió" campaign, launched by trade associations together with the City Council to fill the streets with life, support local commerce, and create free leisure activities for all ages. During the ride, young and old can immerse themselves in a very special festive atmosphere – surrounded by decorated shop windows, Christmas markets, nativity scenes, and Christmas music.
