Málaga Fair

August 10, 2015

The Málaga Fair will take place from the 15th to 22th August 2015. The city will light up in its beauty and invites locals as well as tourists to a weeklong celebration with exciting events and a true Andalucian feel.

The street-party celebrates the re-conquest of the city in 1487. Each year on the third Saturday of August the fair begins with an impressive firework display. As tradition has it, woman show off their gorgeous flamenco dresses, which many have had designed especially for the occasion. The streets become a colorful, roaring landscape with finger snapping, foot stomping and music accompanying the ‘Sevillanas’, the traditional dance of Andalucia.

Marques de Larios is the main street around which the festivities take place within the city. In addition, the Fairground, close to the Palacio de Congreso provides many different ‘casetas’, large fair booths, with traditional music, food, and other entertainment for all ages.

Don’t miss out on this impressive experience. Come to Malaga and enjoy this special event!
