Benalmadena celebrates the St. David’s Day celebrations on Saturday 1st March.
In Arroyo de la Miel – the multi-cultural hub of the Costa del Sol – the Welsh community will gather to celebrate their expat community, eat, drink and dance Welsh food.
The party will run from 1pm to night. Presi Aguilera presented the event. It was organised by the Welsh Society Association, in collaboration with the Delegation of Foreign Residents.
All proceeds will be donated to Age Concern Fuengirola, Mijas & Benalmadena. ‘We invite our neighbours and visitors to join a day that traditionally has a great atmosphere, with top-level musical performances and the best typical food and drink from Wales,’ Presi Aguilera stressed about an event that began to be held annually in the town since 2012.
‘In addition, it is for a good cause,” the mayor said, as all proceeds will be donated to Age Concern Fuengirola, Mijas & Benalmadena. The events will feature live music all day. This includes performances by the T.A.P.A.S Choir as well as Costa Soul Singers and Rock of Ages.
Since forming in 2012, the Welsh Society Costa del Sol have raised over €25,000 for local, national and international charities, and this year their chosen charity is Age Concern who provide help for older people in need.
