Marbella will host for the first time in Andalusia both the King's Cup and the Queen's Cup, one of the main events on the 2025 national beach volleyball calendar. The mayor, Ángeles Muñoz, highlighted during the official presentation at the Hospital real de la Misericordia, that the championship "will take place in top-level public facilities of 80,000 square meters, such as the Mediterranean Park, from May 29 to June 1." She also emphasized that "it will have a great impact at the media and promotional level, through TVE on its Teledeporte channel and leading media outlets such as Marca and AS." On this matter, she pointed out that "our municipality has the climate, the facilities, a growing number of practitioners in this sport, and a great tradition in it." "It offers all the guarantees for the tournament to exceed all initial expectations and be a real success," she added.

The mayor thanked the Spanish Royal Volleyball Federation, represented at today's event by its president Felipe Pascual, for choosing Marbella, and highlighted the fact that Marbella joins other cities such as Madrid, Valencia, Alicante, Gijón, Gran Canaria, A Coruña, and Tenerife, "in a circuit that will delight the fans of this sport." "For our municipality, it is a real luxury to host these important championships, a reference in the national and international calendar for the next three years, positioning our destination as unique in this discipline," she assured. She also stated that "probably, not all places can say that they have clubs as powerful as the ones we have here, with such an important youth system in volleyball."

For his part, the Sports Councilor, Lisandro Vieytes, highlighted that in the Mediterranean Park, where this event is held, "we can set up up to 16 beach volleyball courts" and thanked and also congratulated Costa del Voley "for their season and the activity they are giving to these facilities." The president of the Spanish Royal Volleyball Federation, Felipe Pascual, specified that "we already have within the national calendar about twenty events of different levels that start this year, to which some more can still be added in the second semester." He added that "if we are here today, it is thanks to the great work you are doing for volleyball in Marbella." The event also featured the participation of the provincial deputy for Sports Juan Rosas, presidents of federations from other host cities (Pedro Girones, Madrid, or Luis Ángel Ruenes, Asturias), councilors from this area, such as, among others, the Sports Councilor of Fuengirola, Julio Rodríguez, and players Sofía González (current Queen's Cup champion and Spanish champion) and Adrián Gavira (Olympian).
