Fuengirola’s main fairground is ready to host the ever-popular ‘Feria Internacional de los Paises’ (International People’s Fair), a multicultural event where visitors can experience the rich cultural diversity the city has to offer.
Just a quick heads up… a few years ago the fair changed its name from ‘Feria Internacional de los Pueblos’ to ‘Feria Internacional de los Paises’ (International Countries Fair). That being said, the logo and unifying spirit of the fair remains the same.
This year the Fair will last 5 days from Wednesday 1st May to Sunday 5th May 2024.

Next Sunday the 14th of April, Benalmadena will host the 39th edition of its popular ‘Fiesta de la Bicicleta’ or Bicycle Party, one of the city’s oldest and most emblematic events in its busy sports calendar. This year the event returns stronger than ever with a fun-packed morning of cycling for all who choose to participate.
It’s not a race. The whole event is designed to be a fun family day out, fitting in perfectly with Benalmadena’s image as an idyllic destination for tourism and sports.
This unique tradition started almost 40 years ago to foment the use of bicycles as a healthy habit and an alternative form of transport.
