For the 18th year running, our friends at Goldsoul – well-established UK Soul event promoters – are coming back for a fun week of the best tunes, lots of dancing and, of course, sunshine!!!

This year’s ‘Costa del Soul’ event promises to be the best yet. It runs from Friday 2nd October to Saturday 10th October and featuring some of the top DJ’s from the UK playing the most fantastic Soul Music Tunes throughout the day.

Soul music lovers can enjoy their daily dose of Classic Soul tunes by the hotel’s poolside Kanaloa terrace whilst enjoying a cool jug of Sangria and working on their tans!

After a hard day by the pool, the fun continues in the Panorama Bar with some laid-back soul from 6 to 9 pm. This includes the ever-popular happy hour and the chance to catch up and watch the latest live Premier League or Champions League football matches.

If you haven’t been before, we highly recommend you do so! Get ready for 8 days of fun and entertainment as the city welcomes thousands of visitors from all over Spain for what has become the most popular summer fair in Andalucía and one of the most popular festivities in Spain.

The fair starts on Friday 14th August with a Historical Parade through the streets of the old town at 8:00pm. At 11:50 p.m., you’ll be able to enjoy a special Drone light show, which, following last year’s success, promises to be even more spectacular, with over 200 drones flying simultaneously through the skies of Malaga.

From midnight, you get to watch the spectacular pyro-musical and fireworks display from the cruise terminal access area in Malaga Port. Lasting 20 minutes and using more than 500 kilos of gunpowder, it’s a show you won’t want to miss!

The fair’s official opening takes place on Saturday 15th August in the same location as last year; the Cortijo de Torres fairground. Malaga CF coach Juan Francisco Funes Arjona will conduct the traditional ‘Pregon’ (opening speech) before the switching on of the fair lights.
