At Malaga Center, the night air is almost always filled with the sounds of laughter and music, especially the flamenco and the verdiales. In fact, there is always something happening in Malaga!

Come Holy Week (Semana Santa), Malaga Center comes alive with color and sound. Even the air vibrates with the rhythmic beating of the drums and the singing (or more like wailing) of the “saeta.” Magnificent floats carrying precious religious sculptures draped in velvet and gold and finished off with candles and an indeterminate amount of flowers are sights to behold.

Summer ushers in the Feria de Malaga, which is the second largest fair in all of Europe. The city streets fill with processions and dancing while casetas (like temporary bars) are erected to showcase exhibitions of flamenco music and dancing.
