Five Best Antique Fairs To Explore This Summer

24th April 2026

There’s an undeniable thrill to vintage shopping: the early-morning scouring of booths, the chance discovery, the frisson of knowing that what you’ve found is ineffably yours. Even before concerns about environmental impact started to inform the way we shop, items that hadn’t been mass-produced possessed a rarity and uniqueness, adding status and luxury. Pieces crafted decades ago were made to endure, with an attention to detail and a commitment to artisanal skill. No wonder so many interior designers sourcing for discerning clients make a beeline for antiques fairs.

Palma de Mallorca Off-Season Travel Guide | The Sybarite

20th February 2026

When you first mention Mallorca, tourists typically cite the island's 200+ stunning turquoise-water beaches and the wonderful Mediterranean climate which boasts more than 300 days of sunshine. However, there’s much more to the island than meets the eye. Warm weather aside, Mallorca is steeped in rich culture and an eclectic culinary scene - both of which are especially noticeable in the capital, Palma de Mallorca. Here, the accommodation is geared towards bespoke luxury, with 22 boutique hotels and an astonishing 97% of beds in the city belonging to five-star hotels. Visit in January and you will encounter vibrant festivals, such as the Sant Antoni Festival and the Sant Sebastià Festival. The weather is still at a respectable 15-16 degrees Celsius, and you won’t have to battle the tourist queues at cultural sites and restaurants.
