About this Event
🎨 ART COLOGNE PALMA MALLORCA International Art Fair · 9–12 April 2026 · Palma This April, Palma becomes an international meeting point for modern and contemporary art. From 9 to 12 April 2026 , the first edition of ART COLOGNE PALMA MALLORCA lands at the waterfront Palau de Congressos Palma Bay , positioning Mallorca firmly on the global art calendar. Born as an extension of the renowned ART COLOGNE , the fair arrives with a clear international vocation — and strong local roots, in collaboration with Art Palma Contemporani . The event is supported by the Govern de les Illes Balears, the Consell de Mallorca and the Ajuntament de Palma. Importantly, the fair takes place outside peak tourist season , creating a more focused and professional atmosphere that encourages dialogue between galleries, artists, collectors and visitors. 🖼️ 89 Galleries · Around 20 Countries The 2026 edition brings together 89 galleries from approximately 20 countries , combining: Established international positions Modern masters and post-war references Contemporary and ultra-contemporary practices A strong and visible presence of Mallorca-based galleries As Artistic Director Daniel Hug notes, a fair should always reflect the place where it is held — and Mallorca is not just a backdrop, but an active cultural reference within the project. 🏛️ Fair Structure: Two Sectors The exhibition route adapts to the architecture of the Palau de Congressos and is structured into two distinct sectors: GRAN SALÓ Located in the main hall, Gran Saló presents larger-scale booths and a more classical fair format. Here, galleries showcase a broad spectrum of Modern, Post-War and Contemporary art , offering collectors and visitors a strong overview of established practices and significant positions within the international market. PARKOUR More compact and experimental, Parkour encourages new curatorial approaches and innovative presentation formats. Spread across different levels of the venue, this sector focuses on younger, emerging and forward-thinking programmes , highlighting ultra-contemporary practices and fresh artistic voices. Together, the two sectors balance tradition and experimentation — creating both a serious marketplace and a space for discovery. 🕰️ Dates & Opening Hours Thursday, 9 April 2026 · 12:00–20:00 (Preview for invited guests) Friday, 10 April · 13:00–20:00 Saturday, 11 April · 13:00–20:00 Sunday, 12 April · 13:00–18:00 The fair is open to both professional and general audiences interested in modern and contemporary art. 🎫 Tickets Early bird ticket sales are now open.
