This is the event that stops the city. The Feria de San Bernabé is Marbella’s main annual festival, honoring its patron saint. For one full week, the city transforms into a spectacle of color, music, dance, and traditional Andalusian culture. It is the most authentic expression of Marbella’s soul, moving from day to night.
The Starlite Occident Festival is the gold standard of boutique music. Held in a natural rock quarry with acoustics that will give you chills, this is the most intimate way to see a global icon.
Located in the historic bullring of Puerto Banús, the Marbella Arena provides a 360-degree sensory experience. This summer, the legendary UB40 featuring Ali Campbell brings those iconic Caribbean vibes to the coast.
If you need a break from the bass, this is the “chill-out” event of the summer. Thousands of flickering candles, a world-class string quartet, and a luxury resort backdrop.
This is Marbella’s most moving tradition. Watch as the “Queen of the Seas” is carried from the church to the harbor and set upon a boat, followed by a glittering flotilla of hundreds of vessels.
Marbella at its most glamorous returns to the luxury marina. This isn’t just a runway; it’s a scene of high energy, yachts, and the Mediterranean breeze.
Maroon 5 returns to the Starlite stage for what is expected to be the fastest-selling ticket of the year. Hearing Sugar or Moves Like Jagger echoing off the quarry walls is a bucket-list experience.
