Marbella is much more than beaches and luxury. The city and its surroundings offer a vibrant cultural scene through unconventional international festivals, which invite you to discover art in unusual settings full of history.

The interaction between filmmakers and the public in debates and workshops makes each session an enriching experience.
Concerts in Unusual Venues

Jazz and Poetry Nights
For those looking for a more intimate experience, the Jazz and Poetry Nights in Marbella’s old town are not to be missed.
