Feria de Málaga (Málaga Fair) also known as the August Fair, celebrates and recalls the occupation of the city by Catholic Monarchs on August 19th, 1488, incorporating it into the Crown of Castile.
The first celebration, after the formation of the Málaga City Council, took place on August 15th, 1491 with a procession. The following year the date was moved to the remembered August 19. The fair was held every year and in the 17th century there were already carts and fireworks displays, a tradition that continues to take place until today.
The Feria de Málaga this year is celebrated from August 12th to August 19th, with a duration of 8 days.
One of the characteristics of the Málaga Fair is that it has two celebration zones: the Day Fair, in the city center of Málaga from 12:00 to 18:00, and the Night Fair, held in the Cortijo de Torres (Málaga Congress Center), in which this fairground has activities all day.
The city center of Málaga is all out for this grand festival that started from saturday, 12th of August, with the streets of the historic center decorated with lanterns and floral decorations, starting with Calle Larios and its grand doorway.
There are people dressed in flamenco dresses, and the singing and entertaining of the verdiales on the streets, and stall selling hats, glasses, scarves and all the essentials to experience the authentic mood of the fair in the city center. It all comes together at the Plaza de la Constitución where the atmosphere is hyped and inviting - there you can find kiosks that serve food and drinks with a special stage for musical performances of different artists.
