The Ultimate List of Costa del Sol Concerts for Summer 2012

Concerts on the Costa del Sol

Just some of the great artists playing on the Costa del Sol this summer

At the start of last summer we wrote a blog post highlighting the main music concerts on the Costa del Sol over the summer. Well, it proved so popular that we’ve decided to do the same for this summer 2012 season!

If you are on holiday on the Costa del Sol– or indeed if you live here permanently – it’s always nice to know what’s happening on the concert scene over the summer. I know many of our guests at Sunset Beach Club are more than happy with our great live music and entertainment shows in our Moonlight Theatre (shameless plug!) but there are many guests who also like to get out and see some of the Coast; a good concert is a great excuse for this 🙂

Without further a do, here is our ultimate list of Costa del Sol concerts for this summer: (more…)
