What's on in Benalmádena

Events, local discoveries and useful stories for your time here.

Benalmádena spreads across three parts on the Costa del Sol: the beach-and-marina resort of Benalmádena Costa, the inland commuter town of Arroyo de la Miel, and the old hilltop pueblo above. The marina is one of the prettiest on the coast, and a cable car runs up Calamorro mountain for the views.

Summer centres on Arroyo de la Miel's San Juan fair, with six days of live music, and the San Juan beach night of bonfires and a pyromusical show. The Bil Bil castle hosts a European Music Day concert. Here's what's on while you're here.
