Events on the Costa del Sol, Spain

Things to do, places to go, events, charity get-togethers, gigs and a whole lot more.  Our Events page is designed for these events.  We like local community things, particularly charity events on the Costa del Sol.  If you’re organising something, let us know!  Submit your event.

So much is happening here on the Costa, but so little gets the attention it deserves.  We’re changing that.  We’re happy to promote all types of events from sponsored dog-walks, language learning groups and classes, and community events, up to major music gigs and entertainment events.

If you know of something going on – let us know and we’ll tell everyone else!

If you need sound and light for your event, talk to Dave James Events!
