Where to Park During the Málaga Fair 2026: Real Fairground and City Center Parking

Drivers should keep in mind the road closures and detours the city will see throughout the Málaga Fair. These disruptions will be concentrated around the city center and the Cortijo de Torres area, the two locations hosting the fair's events.

The city council has published its special mobility plan for the dates, which also covers the parking areas set up around the Real fairground, where up to four designated parking zones have been arranged. Around the historic city center, the council has listed the various public parking garages available, noting they'll stay open around the clock.

Parking at the Real Fairground

The Mobility Department has set up a total of 3,185 car parking spots across different areas around the Real fairground. Each zone is marked with its own color and will be staffed by parking attendants.

Here are the designated parking areas:

• Huerta de Correo (blue): 870 spots
• Teatinos (white): 640 spots
• Palacio de Ferias: 75 spots reserved for people with reduced mobility
• Other nearby locations: an additional 1,600 spots
• Motorcycle parking at Palacio de Ferias: 2,990 dedicated spots

The city council recommends using the traffic roundabouts to reach this area, with specific signage guiding drivers to the various parking zones set up around Cortijo de Torres.

Public Parking Garages in Málaga City Center

Around the city center, drivers can use the municipal parking garages at Plaza de la Marina, San Juan de la Cruz, Tejón y Rodríguez, Alcazaba, Camas, Andalucía, Cervantes, and Salitre. Together, these add up to 5,066 spots and will remain open 24 hours a day, as will the garages at Carlos Haya, Cruz del Humilladero, Pío Baroja, and El Palo.
