Everything on in Benalmádena — live events, gigs, markets, fiestas and nightlife for today, tonight and this week. Updated regularly, free to browse.
Benalmádena's calendar is split between its three centres. Arroyo de la Miel has the big one — the Feria de San Juan in the last week of June, straight after the bonfires on the beach on the night of the 23rd. Benalmádena Pueblo answers with flower carpets through its streets for Corpus Christi and its own fair for the Virgen de la Cruz in mid-August, and the marina sends the Virgen del Carmen out to sea on 16 July.
Week to week there's the Friday market by the old Tivoli site and the Wednesday flea market beside Parque de la Paloma, with concerts and exhibitions at the reopened Castillo de Bil-Bil. This page keeps the coming days — tonight, this weekend and the week ahead — in one place, updated as events are confirmed.

Calle Francia (by Mercadona), Estepona
Estepona's big weekly street market, every Wednesday morning: fresh produce, clothes, leather and household goods across 250-plus stalls. It moved from the fairground to Calle Francia, beside the new Mercadona, in February 2025.
Friday is the main street market, 9am–2pm on the old Tivoli car park next to Arroyo de la Miel train station, with around 300 stalls. A flea market runs on Wednesdays at the fairground beside Parque de la Paloma.
There are two. Arroyo de la Miel's Feria de San Juan is in late June (24–29 June in 2026), and Benalmádena Pueblo's Feria de la Virgen de la Cruz is in mid-August.
On the night of 23 June there are bonfires, music and midnight swims on the beaches, and the Feria de San Juan follows in Arroyo de la Miel with casetas, free concerts and a funfair.
Neighbours carpet the village streets with fresh flowers and herbs and decorate their balconies, and the procession passes over the carpets. It falls in late May or June depending on Easter.
