Parking during the Malaga Fair: price of downtown parking lots

The city is preparing for one of its biggest celebrations: the Feria de Málaga. This year, taking place from August 16 to 23, there will be a new main entrance at the fairgrounds, and the speaker for this 2025 event is the writer Javier Castillo. In less than two weeks, ruffles and lanterns will take center stage in the capital, with the Center being one of the main hubs for the festivities. There are various public transport options (bus, metro, or commuter train), but some may prefer to drive their own vehicles. These drivers will face the uncertainty of where to park. The city has more than a dozen public parkings managed by Smassa.

In the city center, there are seven, with prices ranging from 2.10 euros per hour, to 2.35 euros (on weekends). Additionally, there is the option to purchase passes, which could make parking cheaper for users.
