Mallorca Open 2026 offers AES members 15% registration refund

Mallorca Open 2026 gives Asociación Española de Speedcubing members a 15% refund on registration, which means AES membership cuts the entry price to 85% of the posted fee. For every €100 paid to enter, a member gets €15 back, while a non-member pays full price, so the first question for Spanish cubers is simple: if you are already on the fence about the trip, membership now can turn a normal registration into a meaningful discount.

The World Cube Association listing places the competition at Sala Palmanova in Palmanova, Calvià, and specifies that the venue is on the ground floor, or planta baja. That detail matters in a sport where competitors arrive with bags of cubes, lube, timers, chargers, and food, because ground-floor access usually makes check-in and setup less awkward than an upstairs room or a cramped hallway venue.

The registration notes add another practical constraint. FMC, 4BLD, 5BLD and MBLD are limited to 20 people because of capacity, or aforo, limits. That makes timing matter for anyone hoping to enter the more specialized events, since the cap is low enough that these slots can fill before the rest of the schedule does.

The refund is not a new experiment. The 2025 Mallorca Open page used the same pattern at the same venue, again at Sala Palmanova, planta baja, with AES members receiving a 15% discount after the competition. That repetition suggests the perk is part of the event’s regular setup rather than a one-off gesture, and it gives the Mallorca Open a clear identity for domestic cubers who pay attention to small cost advantages.

Calvià’s official agenda also lists a speedcubing championship, which fits the picture of an area that already treats cubing as part of its public calendar. For Spanish competitors deciding where to spend their 2026 travel budget, that combination of a ground-floor venue, explicit event caps and a member refund makes Mallorca easier to justify than a standard open with no registration break.

For anyone already planning to register, joining AES before entering is the move that converts the 15% refund into actual savings. On a hobby trip where every euro and every capped event slot counts, Mallorca Open 2026 is built to reward the cubers who sort out membership first and registration second.
