In late July 2026 King Felipe VI arrived in Mallorca to begin the Crown’s traditional summer institutional agenda, holding an audience with Balearic officials and receiving a formal invitation to attend the island’s 800th‑anniversary celebrations in 2029. A week later the royal family hosted its annual summer reception at the Marivent Palace. King Felipe VI, Queen Letizia, former Queen Sofía, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofía welcomed around 600 guests from politics, culture, business and sport.
