Event Overview: Feria de Málaga (August Fair)
The Feria de Málaga is southern Spain's ultimate summer street party. Held over a week in August, the festival celebrating the city's incorporation into the Crown of Castile is uniquely split in two: the "Feria de Día" (Day Fair) bringing dancing, Cartojal sweet wine, and folklore to the historic city center, and the "Feria de Noche" (Night Fair) held at the massive Cortijo de Torres fairgrounds featuring hundreds of casetas (tents) and fairground rides.
How to Get There: Local Transport Options
🚆 By Train (Renfe Cercanías)
The C1 Cercanías train stops at 'Victoria Kent', which is a 15-minute walk to the Cortijo de Torres Night Fairgrounds. Renfe occasionally extends night train services during the Feria, providing limited early-morning returns.
🚌 By Intercity Bus (Avanza / ALSA)
EMT Malaga operates a special fleet of F-Line buses ("Buses de la Feria") connecting all neighborhoods to the Real de la Feria 24 hours a day. These are cheap but get extremely crowded, with long boarding queues during peak hours.
During the Feria week, over a million people descend upon the city. Public taxi ranks at the airport and train stations experience unprecedented delays, often running completely out of cars. A pre-booked private transfer bypasses the chaos, guaranteeing an immediate, air-conditioned departure upon your arrival.
