How to get a Mallorca 312 entry for 2027

There are six ways into the Mallorca 312 and only one of them is cheap. Entries for 2027 opened on 6 October 2026 — the organiser posted the date on its own front page — and in 2025 the 8,500 places were gone in seconds. This page is about what to do about that, starting with the day you need to be watching from, which is earlier than it sounds.

Not the on-sale

The public on-sale date has passed — the organiser’s VIP rate, the marketplace, the waiting list and the packages are what is left

Route one: the public on-sale

This is the only route at face value, and the only one where being prepared changes the outcome.

How we got this Read off the rows rather than retyped beside them: the day-of-month range, the count of Tuesdays and the count of rows stating 11:00 are all computed from the same records the table renders, and checked against the calendar by the same code. No organiser statement of a fixed rule exists — this is a pattern, not a schedule.Computed from the dated on-sale reports in the table above.Computed 24 August 2026.

One number in that table is worth a warning. Ahead of the 2025 on-sale two outlets announced 8,000 places — «habrá 8.000 plazas disponibles» in Ciclismo a Fondo on 9 September 2024, "for 8,000 riders" in Gran Fondo Guide on 1 October 2024. Ultima Hora reported the following day that the race had sold out «con 8.500 dorsales en liza», and 8,500 is the cap the organiser publishes for 2027.

Source Gran Fondo Guide, Ciclismo a Fondo and Ultima Hora — three outlets, two figures · checked 27 August 2026All three pages were read on 27 August 2026 and the two figures are quoted from them, not reconciled. The organiser’s own homepage carries 8,500 for 2027 and is the authority on the cap.

We are not going to reconcile those two figures for you, because the three pages do not say whether the cap was raised between the announcement and the opening or whether the previews simply repeated the previous year’s number. What it means on the day is the useful half: the figure in the news is not necessarily the figure at the checkout, and the organiser’s own front page is the one that counts.

What the record supports. Entries have opened between 4 and 8 October for 4 consecutive editions, 3 of them on a Tuesday, and every edition that states a clock time opened at 11:00 Mallorca time (CEST, UTC+2 — Spain is still on summer time in early October). The organiser has never published this as a rule, so treat it as a window to be watching, not a date to diarise.

What the record now says. Entries for the 2027 edition opened on 6 October 2026. The organiser publishes the date in its own site header — "General registrations: October 6" in the English edition, «Inscripcions generals: 6 d'octubre» in the Catalan — beside the race date of 24 April 2027. The hour is not on that page and never was: it is on the waiting room his registration platform sends riders to, which opened at 11:00 Mallorca time.

Source mallorca312.com (organiser homepage, Catalan and English editions both read) · checked 6 October 2026Read again on 6 October 2026 in both editions — the on-sale day itself — and then once more an hour later, after entries had opened, in documents identical to the byte: no clock time appears on either edition, the parenthesised forms "(CET)" and "(CEST)" do not occur at all, and neither does the euro sign. That is eleven reads of this page finding no hour, and the eleventh establishes why: the hour is published on the waiting room riders are sent to, not here, and this page did not change when it arrived. The general-registration button targets this same page, before the opening and a minute after it alike — the waiting room is what moves a rider on. The date lands inside the window the table beside it predicted: the 4 previous on-sales all fell between 4 and 8 October, and 6 October 2026 is a Tuesday, as 3 of those 4 were. What the organiser still does not give is the hour, and the hour is what decides whether a rider is at their keyboard: in 2025 the 8,500 places went in seconds, and every previous on-sale that named a time opened at 11:00 Mallorca time. How much warning that hour has given before is set out beside this date, with the day to start watching from.

Source mallorca312.com (organiser homepage, Catalan and English editions) and rockthesport.com (his own registration platform, both editions) · checked 6 October 2026Read on 6 October 2026, the on-sale day itself, in both editions of each publisher — and the waiting room ten times across the opening instant it had published. The hour is the moment that room states for itself, converted to Mallorca time; it is not on the page that carries the date, which is why eleven readings of that page found no time of day. What establishes the hour as kept rather than merely announced is the change of the room’s own wording between 10:59:29 and 11:00:17. The button targets are read from the downloaded bytes of each edition rather than from a rendering, and they are unchanged a minute after the opening — so it is the waiting room, not the button, that moves a rider on. The fee list is every row in the platform’s own "Fees" / «Tarifes» block as it stood before the room went up, cross-checked by counting euro signs: one per document, in both editions.

The published date fits the pattern this site had been predicting from: 4 previous on-sales between 4 and 8 October, and 6 October 2026 is the 4th of them to fall on a Tuesday.

How we got this The day-of-month range and the Tuesday count are read off the rows by the same code that renders them. The new date is checked against the calendar the same way. This is a pattern holding once more, not a schedule the organiser publishes — it has no predictive authority of its own.Computed from the dated on-sale rows in the table above, and the organiser’s published 2027 on-sale date.Computed 6 October 2026.

The hour is the part still missing, and the hour is the part that decides it. Every edition that has ever named a clock time opened at 11:00 Mallorca time. When that hour became public, it came anywhere from 29 days ahead of the on-sale to a single day — a month of warning and a day of warning have both happened, and all four reports named the same hour.

One thing changed in the week before this on-sale, and it is worth being precise about. The organiser’s own registration platform opened the 2027 registration window at 11:00 on 29 September 2026 — so for the first time the 11:00 is his, on this edition, rather than an outlet’s recollection of an earlier one. What that does not tell you is what is inside that queue when it opens — the waiting room publishes its opening time and its rules, not its contents, so whether a rider who joins it reaches a general entry is not something this site can state without entering a registration flow, which it does not do. The window the platform opened is the one the VIP rate sits in; the general rate joins it on the 6th at a time nobody has printed. Be there early, and do not plan around a number the organiser has not published.

How we got this A split, not a calculation: the hour the organiser has published is separated from the hour a reader would like it to imply. Nothing is inferred from the pattern — the pattern is reported beside it under its own record, and `notEstablished` is published rather than left as an absence, because an absence reads as an oversight.Computed from the registration-window opening time published on rockthesport.com for the XVII edition (11:00 on 29/9/2026), the four dated outlet reports in `announcementLead` (all 11:00), and the ten consecutive reads of mallorca312.com recording no hour — the tenth taken on the on-sale date itself.Computed 6 October 2026.

How we got this One branch per phase, each assembling its sentence from the same records the page prints elsewhere rather than from a stored string. No branch asserts anything about how the on-sale went: this site has never observed one, and the sell-out figures belong to `onSaleHistory` with the outlets that reported them.Computed from `onSalePhaseNow`, the on-sale and watch dates, and the observed announcement leads in `announcementLead`.Computed 6 October 2026.

Route two: the organiser’s own VIP rate

The organiser has been selling entries to the 2027 race since 29 September 2026, and he is still selling them. A third button on his own front page — “VIP Registration” in the English edition, «Inscripció VIP» in the Catalan — goes straight to his own registration platform, with no operator and no package in between. The window opened on 29 September 2026 at 11:00 and runs to 24 April 2027 at 23:59 — the eve of the race. One rate sits inside it: VIP Mallorca 312 OK Mobility 2027, at €999.99.

Tuesday morning is the cheap way in. It has never been the only one.

What it costs is the whole argument against it, and it is not close: 6.25× the face-value entry, for the same three routes over the same mountains. Nobody should read this as a recommendation. Read it as the thing worth knowing the morning after a sell-out: there is a route that is open, priced and in no hurry, and it does not make you wait until December for the marketplace.

What the organiser does not publish is what the rate includes. The platform gives its name, its price and its deadline and stops. Operators sell things they call VIP — one lists a VIP entry, a German camp advertises a guaranteed place in the front starting block — but those are their packages, not his rate card, and we are not going to furnish his from theirs. The rate page itself redirects into a registration form, and we do not walk into somebody’s checkout to read a price. So: the entry is the organiser’s, and what comes with it is unpublished. Ask him what the €999.99 buys before you pay it.

It also has a deadline and no published cap, which is not the same as no cap.

Route three: the official marketplace

The organiser runs its own resale channel, and it is the only legitimate one — entries are otherwise strictly personal and non-transferable, so a bib bought privately is a bib you cannot ride on.

The window moved, and it moved against you. Under the 2026 terms it opened on 22 October, two weeks after the on-sale. The 2027 conditions open it 1 December 2026 to 31 March 2027 — six weeks later, and eight weeks after the on-sale rather than two. If Tuesday goes badly, the marketplace is not the near-term answer it was last year; it is a December answer. Read the fee carefully, because it is easy to get backwards: it is not charged to you as the buyer. Article 10 of the conditions refunds the original rider “except for the management fees” — so the 20% / 30% / 40% is taken out of what the seller gets back, and it doubles the longer they leave it. As the buyer you pay the entry price.

What that schedule tells you is where the supply is. A rider selling in March forfeits 40% of the registration cost instead of 20%, so anyone who knows early has a reason to sell early — and the window now opens eight weeks after the on-sale, so the people who bought a place in the scramble and cannot use it have had two months to work that out before they can give it back.

We are not going to print what 40% of comes to, because the organiser’s own conditions no longer agree on the number. The marketplace article deducts a percentage “of the registration cost”; the cost article states the registration fee twice, once inside a total and once as a line that does not add up to it. See the end of this page.

Route four: the waiting list

After the 2024 sell-out the organiser opened a waiting list alongside the marketplace, allocating places released by cancellations. It costs nothing to join and it is the only free fallback, but it depends entirely on other people withdrawing.

Route five: a tour-operator package

Operators hold their own allocation of guaranteed entries. This is the reliable route, and the expensive one: you are buying certainty in a market where certainty is the scarce thing.

Read both rows carefully, because neither says quite what a quick look suggests. Love Velo describes itself as the official travel package operator of the last decade, and also says its 2027 packages depend on being selected again as an operator — operator status is granted annually, so a package advertised in August 2026 for April 2027 is a pre-registration, not a confirmed entry. Sportive Breaks does say the entry itself is guaranteed and prices it at £190, on a page headed for 24 April 2027 with 2027 hotel packages — but the entry line still reads “a guaranteed entry for 2026 Mallorca 312”. We think that is stale copy rather than a stale product; we are not willing to assert it for you. Ask them to confirm the year in writing before you pay.

Route six: the package the organiser links to itself

This is the one route on this page you can act on today, and it is the one we had missed. Beside the general registration link, the organiser’s own front page carries a second one — “Registration + accommodation” in the English edition, «Inscripció + allotjament» in the Catalan — and each points at Scio Pro Cycling. The Catalan link goes to that operator’s Spanish page and the English link to its English one, which is what makes it the organiser’s routing rather than a coincidence of search.

All 11 of the hotels are Grupotel’s — the same chain the organiser’s own services page already sends riders to.

Read what these pages do not say as carefully as what they do. No price appears on either of them, so the cost of this route is something you have to ask for. The cap on entries is stated without a number, in the operator’s own words: "Accommodation places are limited and there’s a cap on the number of registration available". And a package that includes a registration is not the same promise as a registration that is guaranteed to you — neither page makes the second promise, and it is the one worth getting in writing before you pay. What is true, and unusual, is that this route is open six weeks before anybody else can enter at all.

The six routes, side by side

The gap between the cheapest and the most certain route is smaller than it looks. A face-value entry on the 2027 terms is €174.99 all in. A guaranteed entry through an operator was £190 — before accommodation. The two are in different currencies and the gap moves with the exchange rate, so we are not going to hand you a percentage; the point is that certainty here costs a premium on the entry, not a multiple of it. Set against a plane ticket and a week’s hotel, the difference between the two routes in is close to noise — which is the real argument for not treating the October on-sale as your only plan.

What the entry itself costs, either way

Three things in that table catch foreign riders out. The €50 jersey is compulsory, not an upsell. The €15 insurance is not waived by a federation licence issued outside Spain, nor by another Spanish federation’s licence — only a current RFEC licence exempts you. And the €15 platform fee is never refunded: you may withdraw within 14 calendar days of registering and get the registration fee back to the original card, by emailing the organiser with your confirmation attached. The withdrawal article refunds "the registration fee" and names nothing else, so the platform fee and the jersey are not refunded. The XVII terms rename the middle item from an administration fee to a registration platform fee; the treatment is unchanged.

And a fourth thing, which is the organiser’s and not ours. The 2027 conditions state the all-in total as €159.99 in article 6.1 and then itemise it, in article 6.3, into three amounts that come to €169.99 — a gap of €10.00. The 2026 itemisation added up exactly; the registration-rights line has since risen by €10.00 and the total has not moved with it. It reads in all three language editions of the page, so it is not a translation slip.

Which figure you will actually be charged is settled by the document itself, not by us. Article 6.4 charges the participant once, for “the total cost for the participant as defined in point 6.1” — and 6.1 is the €159.99. So that is the number to expect at the checkout, and the itemisation is the line that disagrees with it. We are printing both because a rider who adds up the breakdown and gets a different answer should find the discrepancy explained here rather than conclude we mistyped it.

How we got this The three breakdown items are added in cents and compared with the stated total in cents; `gap` is the absolute difference, or null when they agree. `governs` records which figure the document itself points at: art. 6.4 charges “the total cost for the participant as defined in point 6.1”, so the total governs and the breakdown is the line that disagrees. Nothing here decides which number is right — it reports that the publisher states two and which one his own cross-reference charges.Computed from art. 6.1 of the XVII conditions (the total cost for the participant) and the three items of art. 6.3 (jersey, registration platform fee, registration fee), all read in the Catalan, Spanish and English editions on 3 October 2026.Computed 3 October 2026.

What to do between now and October

1. Decide the distance before the on-sale, not during it. The 312, 226 and 167 share the same mountains — the route page has all three measured, and the 226 keeps 90% of the climbing while cutting 83 km of flat interior.
2. The watch is already open — it opened on 7 September 2026, not in October. The hour has been published as much as 29 days ahead of an on-sale, and once with only a day to spare — so there is no point in the calendar at which starting later is safe.
3. Have the payment method ready on the day. In 2025 the places went in seconds.
4. If you miss it, do not buy a bib privately. The marketplace is the only transfer channel the organiser recognises; anything else is a bib you cannot start on.
5. Book the accommodation independently of the entry. Race weekend fills Platja de Muro, and a refundable room near the start is worth holding while your entry is still uncertain.
