Are you in a company? Maybe an organisation? Need a place for a big event? Stop looking: Málaga is your place! The Costa del Sol is a wonderful destination for meetings and conventions, as it is well-connected to the main cities in Spain and Europe and boasts world-class infrastructure, a wide range of options in the entertainment department, fine weather all year round and traditionally renowned gastronomy.
If you are looking for a venue...
There are four major exhibition and conference centres on the Costa del Sol:
- Málaga Exhibition and Conference Centre. Opened only in March 2003, the Málaga Conference Centre has hosted more than 1300 events so far. In a little over ten years, it has become one of the leading venues for trade shows, exhibitions and events, in part courtesy of its location, close to both the airport and downtown Málaga.
- Marbella Exhibition, Trade Show and Conference Centre. This conference centre in Marbella, a city that is synonymous with luxury and glamour, and also the capital of the Costa del Golf, is close to luxury hotels, golf courses, shopping centres, restaurants and leisure facilities. This proximity adds value to it. The Marbella Conference Centre has four concert halls, one of them seating as many as 1500, plus a series of rooms where several activities can unfold at once.
- Costa del Sol Exhibition and Conference Centre. This conference centre in Torremolinos offers 14 rooms of various sizes that can therefore adapt to every event planner’s needs. Lying only 3km away from Málaga Airport, it is perfect to host congresses and trade shows drawing visitors from outside Málaga Province.
- Ronda Convention Centre. If you prefer to hold your event in the hinterland, the convention centre in Ronda has a 500-year history. It is housed in the former Convent of Santo Domingo, a building commissioned by the Catholic Monarchs overlooking the Gorge.
If you want to hold everything in a hotel...
There are lots of major hotels on the Costa del Sol where you can hold mega-events. The Vincci Posada del Patio Hotel in the capital of the Costa del Sol could be a fine choice. In Marbella there are the Iberostar Coral Beach and Los Monteros Hotel, while in Torremolinos stands the Sol Príncipe Hotel.
Besides, there are countless DMCs, service companies and transport operators to help you plan a successful conference or event
