Melody brings final night of Mijas fair to a euphoric close

Melody closes the final night at Mijas Fair in a joyful way

A familiar voice sent off the fair with a bang.

Packed out finale for El Bosque Encantado tour performance

Melody closed the La Cala Feria with her ‘El Bosque Encantado Tour 2026′, bringing in a full house to the main tent on the festival’s final night. The venue was packed to capacity with fans from Andalucia, Spain and elsewhere.

Her setlist mixed old and new, making space for Eurovision entry ‘Esa diva’ with recent hits ‘El apagón’, ‘Ilarié’ and ‘Alarma’ also in the fold. Fan favourite ‘El Gorila’, a nod to her earliest years in music, had the whole crowd dancing. Just days earlier she opened Marbella’s Global Gift Gala. But it was the closing set of her show that brought local audiences closer to her.

Salsa dance steps warm the stage up before the main melodic.

Before Melody’s show, dance troupes of adults led by Juan Jessss Leiva performed salsa, bachata, and cha-cha cha routines. This proved that dancing has no age limit. Children and younger festival goers enjoyed the funfair rides, stalls and food.
