Now, Hugh Elliott has told the EWN that his most recent meetings with the Foreign Ministry took place on Tuesday, January 24, and that a date from which UK nationals will be able to exchange their UK licences for a Spanish one will be announced in the following weeks.

He told the EWN : “I’ve been talking only today to the Foreign Ministry about driving licences. The next announcement will be the date.

“Right now we are in the final stages.

“I can’t claim that I am as keen to get this through as those who have been unable to drive during negotiations because I haven’t been affected by this in the same way as them, but I am super keen to get over the line, in force, and to allow Brits to drive again.”

Radio presenters made the announcement at a press conference in the town on Friday, January 20, with the concert date yet to be released. The Summer Live tour is one of the biggest annual events from the Los40 Principales hit radio station, which plays the hottest chart music.

The radio station said that the final touches are being put on arrangements before a date is announced.

This year’s ninth edition of the festival is expected to be as popular, if not more popular than the last edition which saw more than 135,000 people flock to the town in Axarquía for four dates of festival fun.

A MEGA community effort saw more than 300 local residents come together to plant trees in the El Cantal Forest Park in Rincon de La Victoria. Local mayor, Francisco Salado also opened the park to the public on Sunday, January 22, giving locals and visitors a brand new leisure space.

The park boasts a green space covering an impressive 15,000 metres squared, and will allow locals to reconnect with their surrounding environment. When fully completed, the park will have something to appeal to all outdoor lovers
