Next Saturday the 22nd September 2012, the streets of Málaga will be invaded by the evil imperial troops of Darth Vader! But fear not, we aren’t really under attack; this unique spectacle is actually a well rehearsed and staged event organised by the 501st Legion Spanish Garrison. (more…)
If you’re a nature lover and enjoy a little peace and tranquillity (at least once in a while) during your holidays, we highly recommend you visit the ‘La Concepcion’ Botanical Gardens in Malaga.
Located just north of the city centre, these vast and spectacular gardens are now part of the ‘Ciudad de Malaga’ (Malaga City) Municipal Botanical Trust.
A walk through its colourful gardens will allow you to enjoy an exquisite collection of plants and flora from all over the world. (more…)
16 artists on stage...
It’s almost a year since we welcomed the ‘Arcos de Buenos Aires’ company to out Moonlight Theatre for their first Tango Show. The success of their unique mix of Tango and Argentinian Folk music (Performed by a string chamber orchestra) brought them back to Sunset Beach Club in May and on the 14th of September they will once again be delighting guests and locals with their new show “La Reina del Plata”.
Artistic Director, Walter O. Tejeda Carranza has once again put together a beautiful show with 16 artists performing on stage, including professional tango dancers and a string chamber orchestra. The link below will take you to the company’s Youtube channel where you’ll find a large selection of video clips that will give you a good idea of what you can expect to see on the evening of the 14th.

Once again, the white village of Guaro is ready to welcome visitors from all over the Costa del Sol (and the rest of Spain) for its spectacular Luna Mora Festival. Showcasing the diversity of Andalusian music and culture, this unique festival takes place on the 7th, 8th, 14th and 15th of September and promises visitors an impressive programme of events including live music, dance, street performers and a large selection of workshops to participate in.
The previous edition of the Festival attracted more than 50,000 visitors, a figure which will undoubtedly continue to grow as word spreads of this beautiful event which is known for the 25.000 candles which light up its streets come nightfall.
The daily programme of events is extensive; we’ve highlighted some of our favourites below: (more…)
The Spanish Tourist Board (Turespaña) and travel social network Minube have joined forces to launch a new travel app for iPad, iPhone and iPod: Experience Spain. The new application aims to ‘inspire’ the more that 55 million tourists who visit Spain each year by helping them plan their stay through the recommendations of thousands of other fellow travellers.
There is no doubt that for many travellers, mobile handsets such as smartphones and tablets are slowly substituting more traditional paper based books and guides. Mobile technology will play a significant part in the future of travel and this new application will provide technology buffs with an invaluable travel companion.

The competition required fans to vote for their favourite entries and the top 3 would go into a final selection with the winner being chosen by our General Manager. (more…)
