The biggest gastronomic event in Spain returns to Palma this week with more than 100 tons of seafood and 40,000 bottles of Albariño wine. MarisGalicia opens from May 24th until June 16th in the capital.
A 1,200sqm marquee is being erected to house the massive seafood fair on the Levante industrial estate near the site of the unfinished Palma Convention Centre. Organisers are expecting around 150,000 people to attend the seafood spectacle which will offer 40 different traditional Galician dishes. Also there will be a special menu of 43 euros for two people which includes lobster, crabs, crayfish, prawns, mussels cooked in vinaigrette and a crab platter.
There will be seating for 1,000 people at any one time and a fleet of lorries is going to be bringing fresh seafood from Galicia to feed the thousands. Visitors will also be able to win a free weekend in Galicia including a tour of the famous Pazo vinyeard.
