We have talked in previous posts about the fact that Mallorca shows itself to the world through fiction and mainly thanks to the shootings of summer. The corners of the island, some known and others yet to be discovered, become unbeatable scenarios of films, commercials, documentaries, etc…

The promotion that is achieved with film shoots and commercials is unpayable and added to the volume of business generated, the end result is extraordinary for all stakeholders. The Palma Film Office, which manages and processes the necessary documentation to carry out filming in Palma just released that last year handled 151 requests for filming in Mallorca. Of these, 36% were photo sessions; 33% reports, documentaries, TV shows and music videos, 25% advertising, and 3% television. The second quarter of 2015 was the busiest, with 60 requests, followed by the third quarter with 35. 80% of requests for filming and photography were national, while 20% came from abroad predominance of German origin (about 10% of applications) and the UK (4%), followed by USA, Sweden and France.Similarly, Mallorca has become these days target international thanks to the celebration of the 47th edition of the Trofeo Princesa Sofia Iberostar of Olympic and Paralympic sailing which ends on April 2 and has been confirmed as one of the most important sporting events of the Balearic Islands and one of the most important regattas across Europe Olympic sailing .
