What time does the Palma metro stop running in the evening?

Evenings in Palma tend to wind down earlier than in some larger cities, and the metro service reflects this rhythm. The Palma metro typically ceases operations around 10:00 or 11:00 pm, so it’s wise to plan your journeys accordingly if you’re relying on public transport after dinner or a night out. This means late-night trips, especially towards the outskirts or coastal neighborhoods, might require alternative options such as taxis or the TIB bus network, which sometimes runs later.

Since schedules can adjust seasonally or during local festivals like Nit de Foc, checking updated timetables ahead of time is always a good idea. The Palma metro connects the city center with points like the airport and nearby suburbs, providing an efficient way to avoid traffic during the day. However, once the metro has stopped, buses along major roads like the Ma-13 and Ma-19 can be your next best bet, though their frequency drops past evening hours.

For travelers staying in towns outside Palma — say, in Soller or Alcudia — the tram isn’t an option, but the historic Soller railway can provide scenic daytime journeys. Night owls visiting the larger beach clubs or restaurants near Cala Mondrago or Formentor usually need to plan transport back to town well before public transit ends. Overall, aligning your night plans with Palma’s metro and bus operating hours ensures a smoother and more relaxed experience on the island.
