Without a doubt, the most excellent party of the month in Málaga. Ten days of music, dancing, gastronomy, and partying, lots of partying. The Malaga Fair brings together thousands of people every year both in the Center and in the Real Cortijo de Torres, where tourists and locals intermingle to enjoy the holidays.
The night of the fires, the concerts, the fish in any of its booths, the verdiales in the Plaza de la Constitución … There are many options and for all tastes.
This year the Malaga Fair will start on Wednesday, August 14 after the proclamation and the fireworks, at which time the people of Malaga go to the beaches of Málaga, especially the Malagueta, to welcome the Feria. From there, Malaga dresses up 24 hours a day during the eleven days of celebration.
