A market with the soul of a festival: Christmas shopping, live music, and food from food trucks

The third edition of the City Market is dressed up for Christmas to celebrate the last Saturday of the year. This market, with more than 50 stalls, captures a festive spirit and offers something for everyone - including pets - with stalls for Christmas shopping, crafts, live music, and food in food trucks. The event will be held on December 27 at the Málaga Forum venue from eleven in the morning, and advance tickets are already on sale for 1 euro, while at the door they will cost 3. "Children and dogs enter free," they highlight at the entrance.

The design of this market is intended for all families and is themed for the Christmas holiday season. At 5:30 PM, the arrival of the Three Wise Men is scheduled, so that children can interact and take photos with them, in addition to giving them letters with their wishes. Also, throughout the day, a Christmas-themed Mickey and Minnie will be walking around the Málaga Forum venue.

For children, there are face painting and bouncy castles; while adults can participate in painting workshops or pet training

Throughout the day, workshops for both adults and children will be held: "From training your pet to creating exclusive paintings. They will also enjoy a bouncy castle and a playroom-nursery so that children can have fun while their parents shop," specify the organizers.

All the extra activities at this market are designed for a family day out.

Among the new features this Christmas at the City Market are wine and hot chocolate, as well as stalls selling fritters, cotton candy, or cookies. The market's gastronomy also includes burgers, fries, and products from Sabor a Málaga. Even pet food can be purchased at the stalls, which offer a wide range of options for gifts during this season: "We have spaces for crafts, jewelry, clothing, exclusive dolls, crochet, baby clothes, pet food, records, and original gifts starting at 1 euro," highlight the City Market.

Concerts

The festival spirit of music at this event will start at noon "with Laura León and her festive show of children's songs and adult versions starting at 2 PM." The band Red Bones and their covers will also liven up the stage from 4:00 PM. There is a place for solidarity at the City Market with organizations like Asamma or Asam cats, who will also have their stalls to raise funds.

The most literary space is provided by the presence of the Málaga Writers' Collective, who will have a space of more than six meters with various local writers presenting and signing books. "We have prepared all the details for it to be a very different and special day to enjoy with family and friends on the last Saturday of the year," conclude the organizers of the City Market.
