The ‘Virgen del Carmen‘ celebrations take place in Benalmadena Marina this weekend (from Friday).
The Benalmadena town hall has prepared various events which will take place on Friday 14th, Saturday 15th, and Sunday 16th July, including a wonderful procession through the streets of Benalmádena Costa in which the fishermen will carry their ‘Stella Maris’ to the Marina. Here she’ll be lifted aboard a boat and paraded along the Benalmadena coastline (weather permitting).
If you’ve got some good binoculars, a great place to watch this is from the terrace in our Panorama Bar here at Sunset Beach Club or from the promenade just in front of the hotel. (more…)
The San Juan Fair in Arroyo de la Miel is back again this year with a full programme of events which kicks of this Friday 23rd June!
This year we’ll be able to enjoy the amazing firework display on San Juan night (23rd June) as well as the traditional bonfires all along the beaches. The popular ‘Casetas’ are back in the main fairground every night as are all the fairground attractions and live music concerts. The day fair will also provide hours of entertainment with live music and dancing featuring local artists.

You’ll come across all your favourite species of dinosaur including, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Protoceratops, Diplodocus and Triceratops! (more…)

This year’s event will feature 143 different activities and spread out over more than 68 different locations throughout the city. All the activities are grouped into different categories and themes:
Concert season is in full swing on the Costa del Sol. Many of our guests like to know what’s going on up and down the Coast as they often like to get out and experience some of the great nightlife we have on offer in this wonderful part of the world and a good concert is the perfect excuse for a great night out.
Yes, we do have a great entertainment programme on-site at Sunset Beach Club, with live music, tribute bands and musicals; however, sometimes even we can’t compete with the likes of Robbie Williams, Tom Jones or The Black Eyed Peas!
There are plenty of live concerts programmed along the coast over the summer: Below, we have highlighted some of the top concerts and shows with information on specific dates, venues and ticket prices.

The skies of Malaga will be full of colour the weekend of the 29th & 30th April for the city’s first International Kite Festival.
This stunning visual spectacle will take place on the beaches of El Palo and Pedregalejo, on the eastern side of the city and promises to be a fun weekend for locals and visitors alike.
The event is completely free for spectators to enjoy – although you may wish to splash out on a few sardines and cold beers in one of the fabulous local ‘chiringuitos’ 😊. You’ll be treated to stunning displays from classic kite flyers as well as acrobatics, aerial tricks and impressive choreographies from renowned international kite flying artists.
