Malaga Christmas Lights Switched On

The Christmas lights in Malaga have been officially switched on for 2022. Thousands of people lined the streets of Malaga on Saturday 26th November to see the new lights and watch the world famous shows. Local singer Vanessa Martin performed the official switch on as 16 angels were illuminated over Calle Larios, replacing the winter forest theme of the last few years. The City Mayor and several councillors were also present. The festive crowds enjoyed the sound and light shows, which feature music including the famous “Carol Of The Bells”.

Malaga Drone Display

Alongside the Christmas light shows in Malaga this year there are high tech drone displays. 120 drones will create Christmas images and perform displays in the sky from the cruise terminal area. They should be visible from Palmeral de las Sorpresas, Plaza de la Marina, Pier One, and Gibralfaro. The shows begin on the 3rd December and will then take place at 8pm on the 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th, and 23rd December at 8pm.
