History of the M\u00e1laga Fair<\/h2>\n

The M\u00e1laga Fair, also known as the Feria de Agosto, has its origins in a key historical event: the capture of the city by the Catholic Monarchs on 19 August 1487, when M\u00e1laga was incorporated into the Crown of Castile.<\/p>\n

The first celebration of the fair, following the establishment of M\u00e1laga Town Council, took place on 15 August 1491 with a procession. However, the following year, it was decided to change the date to the memorable 19 August. Over the years, the fair has been held annually and, from the 17th century onwards, fireworks and rockets have been set off \u2013 a tradition that continues in today\u2019s Feria.<\/p>\n

One of the distinctive features of the M\u00e1laga fair is that it comprises two areas of celebration: the daytime fair, located in the centre of M\u00e1laga, and the night-time fair, which takes place at the Cortijo de Torres, in the Teatinos area. However, it is important to note that this funfair already offers activities throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Throughout its history, the M\u00e1laga Fair has evolved into a festival brimming with joy, music, dance and colour. It is a special occasion where locals and visitors alike can enjoy a wide range of stalls, tastings of traditional dishes, flamenco performances, live music and attractions for all ages.<\/p>\n

The M\u00e1laga Fair showcases the city\u2019s rich tradition and culture, and offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in the festive spirit and Andalusian hospitality. Every year, thousands of people gather to celebrate this iconic event, which pays tribute to M\u00e1laga\u2019s history and identity.<\/p>\n

When will the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair take place?<\/h2>\n

The 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair will take place from 12 to 19 August, spanning a total of 7 days. It is important to note that 19 August is always included in the week of celebrations as a historic date commemorating the reconquest of M\u00e1laga by the Catholic Monarchs and its incorporation into the Crown of Castile.<\/p>\n

19 August is a local bank holiday and 15 August is a national bank holiday, which means that during the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair, there will be two bank holidays.<\/p>\n

Who will be the ambassador for the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair?<\/h3>\n

As for the opening speech at the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair, we are still waiting to find out who will be giving it. In previous years, prominent figures from the city such as Estrella Morente, Antonio Banderas and Pablo Albor\u00e1n have had the honour of delivering the opening speech, dedicating a few words to the city and the festivities in M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n

When and where to watch the fireworks at the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair<\/h2>\n

The fireworks display officially marks the start of the celebrations and takes place in the early hours of Friday 11th to Saturday 12th August at midnight. It lasts for around 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

That night, there is no Feria as such, but many people take the opportunity to go out in the centre of M\u00e1laga, creating a pre-Feria atmosphere ahead of the event, which officially begins on Saturday 12th.<\/p>\n

The fireworks are set off from the cruise terminal access area and can be seen from many parts of the city, and even from neighbouring towns such as Torremolinos and Rinc\u00f3n de la Victoria.<\/p>\n

If you want to watch them from the centre of M\u00e1laga, you\u2019ll need to find a vantage point, such as La Coracha or Gibralfaro Castle, or a spot with a good view of the bay, such as Muelle Uno \u2013 and what better place to watch the fireworks than the restaurant
\n Cambara.<\/strong>

Where is the Malaga fair held?<\/h2>\n

The M\u00e1laga Fair is regarded as one of the most important fairs in Spain and is a key event for discovering the city\u2019s culture. During the week of the festival, it is estimated that around 1 million people attend.<\/p>\n

It is important to note that the M\u00e1laga Fair takes place across two main venues: the daytime fair, which is held in the centre of M\u00e1laga, and the night-time fair, which takes place exclusively at the Cortijo de Torres Exhibition Centre. These two events can be combined on the same day, held on separate days, or you can choose to attend just one of them, depending on your preferences.<\/p>\n

M\u00e1laga City Council has a
\n official website, where you will find all the information about the 2023 M\u00e1laga Fair and its programme of events.<\/strong>
