Mijas welcomes summer with Feria de Las Lagunas

Mijas is gearing up for the much-anticipated summer Feria de Las Lagunas 2025, set to take place from June 25 to June 29 – five days of fun and noisy festivities for all ages. 

Mayor Ana Mata unveiled the programme of events at the Teatro Manuel España, highlighting a family-friendly and inclusive event that traditionally for locals officially marks the symbolic beginning of summer.

The fair kicks off on June 25 at 10pm with the ceremonial lighting of the artistic fairground decorations, followed by the presentation of candidates for Feria Queen, King, Ladies, and Companions at 10.15pm, accompanied by performances from Marisol Bizcocho and Álvaro García. The opening day is dedicated to children, with all fairground rides priced at €2.50 and a special inclusivity measure: from 7pm to 10pm, music and ride sounds will be silenced to accommodate those with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).

A highlight of the fair is the free musical programme at the municipal caseta, featuring artists like José Manuel Soto and Siempre Así on June 26, DeCai and Sergio Contreras on June 27, and Juanfra Carrasco, María Terremoto, and Anabel Valencia on June 28. On June 26, a tribute dinner at CEIP María Zambrano will honour the 2025 Feria Grandfather and Grandmother, exclusive to registered seniors over 65 from Las Lagunas.

The Feria de Las Lagunas is a celebration of Mijas traditions with a variety of activities, a local talent show, and an emphasis on inclusivity.
