Hidalgo highlighted the importance of the event for Fuengirola saying, “Fuengirola has become a soughtafter destination for the San Juan and White Night cele­ bration, attracting many visitors eager to experience the year’s most magical night.”

Twenty chiringuito bars along the coast will participate, offering thrilling live performances and staying open until the early hours.

To add to the magical atmosphere, the businesses will run exclusive promotions during the event. Guests dressed in white will receive a complimentary cocktail at the venues.
