La Balanguera (Catalan pronunciation: [lə bələŋˈɡeɾə]) is the official anthem of the Balearic island of Majorca, Spain.

The anthem is an adaptation of Joan Alcover i Maspons (1854–1926) poem based on an ancient and popular Majorcan children's song. The music is a work by the Catalan composer Amadeu Vives and in November 1996 the Consell Insular de Mallorca made it the anthem for the Island.
