PRE-FUEGOS: the run-up to the 2026 Málaga Fair at Isla Pool Club
Event details
14 August 2026 until 14 August 2026
PRE-FUEGOS offers a special warm-up event to kick off the 2026 Málaga Fair with an afternoon at Isla Pool Club, a venue with a swimming pool, music, restaurant, cocktails and lounge areas located within the La Hípica Complex.
The event will take place on Friday, 14 August, from 1:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., just before Málaga officially welcomes its Fair with the traditional midnight fireworks and drone show. It is designed as a meeting point for groups of friends who want to get together during the day, enjoy a meal or a drink, relax by the pool and start the celebrations before continuing the night elsewhere in the city.
Isla Pool Club is a summer venue featuring a swimming pool, Balinese beds, sun loungers, cocktails, a restaurant, music, DJ sets, private VIP areas and a lively afternoon atmosphere. Its location within the La Hípica Complex offers a setting away from the initial hustle and bustle of the Fair while remaining relatively close to Málaga city centre.
The organisers clarify that PRE-FUEGOS does not replace the official fireworks display and does not guarantee a direct view of the fireworks from the venue. The event should be understood as an afternoon warm-up before the official opening of the Málaga Fair. Anyone wishing to watch the fireworks or continue the night elsewhere in the city will need to organise that part of the evening separately.
