The Consell de Mallorca has unveiled a new grant scheme aimed at promoting sustainability in tourism for the year 2027, with a total budget of one million euros. This initiative, announced by the Department of Tourism and the Insular Directorate of Tourism for Governance and Sustainability, was published in the Official Bulletin of the Balearic Islands (BOIB) on 31 October.
This is the first time the sustainability tourism grants will reach this amount, which is intended to support local municipalities in Mallorca. The advance concession system allows local authorities to know the allocated amounts before the start of the 2027 budget year, facilitating better planning for funded projects.
New lines for sustainable tourism development
The 2027 grant scheme includes nine eligible lines related to sustainable tourism, heritage preservation, accessibility, sustainable mobility, and the territorial distribution of tourism activities. These lines have been aligned with the 2030 Agenda and encompass various initiatives, including those focused on heritage and identity, cultural routes, tourist deconcentration, and sustainable redistribution of tourism.
Through this initiative, the Consell de Mallorca aims to provide municipalities with more resources and tools to develop projects tailored to their specific needs and characteristics, while also strengthening collaboration between the island institution and local corporations.
Municipalities have until 20 November to submit their applications. It is important to note that all funded projects and activities must be carried out between 1 January and 30 June 2027, inclusive.
