Malaga Cathedral Illuminations

Malaga Cathedral will be lit up with it’s own light shows three times every evening.  The display will be projected onto the south facing side of the Cathedral’s famous tower.  The video mapping this year tells the story of the Angel of Light fairytale.   The dramatic effect of the show will be amplified by smoke machines, robotic moving lights and searchlights projecting into the sky.

The shows will last for eight minutes, taking place at 6.45pm, 8pm and 10pm every evening.

Malaga Christmas Market

The Christmas market can be found in the park that runs next to the Plaza de la Marina, close to the Pompidou Centre.  The market is open daily from 12pm to 8pm.  You can find figurines , shepherd costumes, tambourines, and sweets, alongside necklaces, rings and earrings handmade for that perfect Christmas gift. The markets provide an amazing opportunity to take a lovely walk whilst finding gifts to put under the tree this year.
