The II Verbena de la Patrona festival, celebrating Velez-Malaga's patron saint, returns to the town's Explanada del Cerro on Saturday, August 15. The annual event, organized by a local religious brotherhood, offers live entertainment, affordable food, and family-friendly celebrations. The festival begins at 8:30pm with performances from the Elsa Guerra Dance Academy and the Cristina Gallardo Dance Academy.
Live music kicks off at 10:30pm with Benito Garcia, followed by Spanish group Ñ Clan. DJ Palomares will keep the energy up with his tunes into the early hours. For those looking to win prizes, the "Rasca y Gana" scratch-and-win raffle will be available, featuring hundreds of donated items from local businesses. Over 50 local companies, shops, and sponsors have contributed to the event's success, reflecting strong support from the broader Velez-Malaga business community.
The festival serves as both a fundraising and social event, allowing residents to support local traditions on a major religious feast day across Spain.
