The tenth edition of Contrallum Sineu 2025, the well-known Night of Lights and Heritage, will take place on Saturday, November 8, from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., turning the municipality in the Pla de Mallorca into a large night-time stage where light, art and historical memory come together in a unique cultural route.
The event, created in 2016, has become one of the most anticipated cultural dates of the Mallorcan autumn, attracting hundreds of visitors every year who walk through the streets in darkness, guided only by light installations, live music, dance, artistic performances and heritage spaces open to the public.
A route that changes every year

In this special 10th-anniversary edition, Contrallum 2025 will premiere a new route, running through the market area and its surroundings, a space barely explored by the project until now. Eleven points of the town will be illuminated, each transformed into a different artistic intervention, created in collaboration with residents, schools, associations and local volunteers.
One of the featured names this year will be Toni Fluxà, multidisciplinary artist, ceramist and musician, who will design one of the light installations along the route.
As in every edition, the project will also involve the CEIP Rodamilans, IES Sineu and CIFP Joan Taix (sa Pobla), as well as cultural associations, craftspeople, the municipal library and dozens of volunteers who make possible this event, widely recognised for its community-based spirit.
Alongside the visual side, the route will include music, dance and live performances, turning the town into an open-air cultural space.

An event that promotes light, silence and civility
The organisers remind attendees that Contrallum is not a mass event, but a sensory experience that respects the urban environment. For this reason, visitors are encouraged to remain quiet along the route, avoid crowding and enjoy the experience calmly, helping preserve the intimate atmosphere that has defined this night-time event since its inception.
The project is led by the Contrallum collective and supported by the Consell de Mallorca, Caixa Colonya and the Sineu Town Council.
