What's On: Marbella

What's On: Marbella We're locals, we're picky, and nothing ends up here just because it looks good on paper.

A little live jazz on a Saturday night? Always.

Last night, we went to Volare for the first edition of The Jazz Room in Marbella. One hour of New Orleans jazz and playful improvisation in a dark, intimate room.

More than anything, I loved seeing this kind of live music concept arrive in Marbella. I have a few more thoughts on this, but I’ll save those for a longer piece.

The next edition is in January. But don’t worry, we’ll remind you in the newsletter well before then.

We spent the morning at San Pedro’s 14th vintage car exhibition on Marqués del Duero, taking photos, looking around, and chatting with one of the owners who had driven his British classic down from Coín.

There were Mercedes everywhere, but I had a soft spot for the old Fords. It’s impressive to see cars of this age still running and being enjoyed properly.

And yes, there was even a DeLorean in San Pedro.

We stopped by Closet & Cocktails today and had a really good time browsing through other people’s wardrobes.

There was a mix of designer pieces, vintage finds, more affordable clothes, local brands, and plenty of people staying for a drink after shopping.

The setting helps too, with the market spread through the gardens under the palms.

It takes place every three months at Boho Club, with free entry. One to remember for the next edition.

Marbella knows how to say goodbye to summer.

Moraga Popular is back this Thursday, with fire on the beach, sardines, live music, and four beaches joining in.

We took a break today and spent about 45 minutes wandering through the Marbella Art Fair at Palacio de Congresos.

The variety this year is really impressive, with everything from vibrant pop art and photography to mixed media, sculptures, and classic paintings.

If you're around this weekend, it's worth a visit. Take your time, wander the turns, and talk to the creators behind the work.

There's live painting happening Saturday evening too, so keep an eye on their socials for that.

📍 Art Fair | Palacio de Congresos
🗓️ On through August 2nd

What a night!

Spain won the World Cup, and within minutes, Marbella moved into the streets.

We ended up in the center, wrapped up in this massive, beautiful, chaotic crowd. Kids, grandmothers, tourists, locals. Everyone was there.

We sang, we danced, and yes... we jumped into the fountain.

Witnessing this felt phenomenal.

Not gonna lie though, feeling that post-tournament blues today. Already missing the flags, the jerseys, and the singing in the streets...

Congrats Spain, you earned every bit of this. 🏆

Hasta la próxima! ⚽️❤️

If you want to see Marbella at its most photogenic, this is the exact calendar window you wait for all year. Late May to early June is when the city explodes with color.

The jacaranda trees turn entire streets purple, scattering violet confetti across the sidewalks, while bright pink and red bougainvillea spills over Old Town walls, balconies, and hidden corners all across the city.

Gas & Dust, Andalusia's independent moto festival, is back in Benahavís for its 3rd year, tucked away in a beautiful park setting with burgers, cold b**r, and rock and roll.

Even if you aren't a bike enthusiast, the garage exhibitors have some cool merch (I walked away with a hat), and the custom bikes on display are true works of art.

📍 Parque Torre Leonera, Benahavís
🗓️ May 29–30
