The Palma city council is under growing pressure to allow shops to open on Sundays. At the moment only retailers in the Jaime III/ Borne areas can open their doors on Sundays but there are calls for change.
Time for a change
It is ridiculous that illegal street sellers are allowed to operate but Palma shops can’t open on a Sunday...

The illegal sellers are a blight in their hotspots in the plaza real and the cathedral palace promenade. Elsewhere too. No doubt criminal gangs are the forces behind them but they persist because: There are not enough police. They evade any police that do show up with practiced ease a la cat and mouse. If they do get nicked, they are promptly re-released to carry on again. What a farce.
'At the moment only retailers in the Jaime III/ Borne areas can open their doors on Sundays' Sorry, this is not true. Have you walked down Calle San Miguel on a Sunday? Pretty much everything is open.
