What's on in Majorca: 7-13 November

Two big autumn fairs in the north of the island this coming weekend. Muro has its pumpkin fair and the highly anticipated pumpkin competition and Pollensa has its artisan fair, which is bigger still this year. There is also the autumn fair in Es Capdellà, Calvia. In Inca on Saturday there is a Night of Fire, with four demons gangs plus batucada drummers. One of the greats of flamenco singing, José Mercé, is at Palma Auditorium on Saturday.
