Next Monday the 21st May 2012 sees the start of the Arroyo de la Miel Tapas Fair. The recent tapas boom has made its way to Arroyo and for a whole week will offer local businesses a great opportunity to attract new business.
This year the event organisers have established a few new rules for the event: The usual Tapas credentials (little booklets) will be available for all who wish to participate but only one stamp will be allowed per establishment. In order to be able to enter the great prize draw, participants will have to obtain 10 stamps, one for each tapa consumed in a different bar or restaurant. It’s a great incentive to visit more establishments.
Credentials will be available in the actual bars and restaurants participating in the tapas fair; once they are filled in with the compulsory 10 stamps, they can be deposited in special containers made available. The prize draw will be held at the end of the week and all participants who deposited their stamped credentials will have the chance to win one of the wonderful prizes and gifts!
The 26 establishments taking part in the fair will also have the chance to win prizes for best tasting tapa, best presentation and best preparation.
These are the bars and restaurants taking part in the Arroyo de la Miel Tapas Fair:
Tabernala Terna, Mesón Azul, Cevecería Calamar, La Celosía, Tabernala Pinta, el Repunte, café bar Tú y Yo, restaurante Alborada, D’Tapas, restaurante La Mezquita, Casa Rafael (Papa Erig), los Barriles, vinotera Rincón de Curro, la Taberna del Cafelito, bar las Flores, Casa Gaspar “Jaen”, la Abuela Mariana, la Alternativa-taberna urbana, taberna el Tapeo, cafetería Bautista, café bar El Aperitivo, Barrio Húmedo, bar restaurante Pepe, la Manzanade Newton, el Patio dela Encarna, y la Despensa del Aceite.
Next Sunday 20th May 2012, the promenade in front of Sunset Beach Club will once again host the Cudeca Walkathon fundraising event. All funds raised at this event are for the Cudeca Cancer Care Hospice in Benalmadena so we’d like to encourage hotel guests and visitors to Benalmadena to take part in the Walkathon and help us support this much needed charity.
SunsetBeachClub will once again be involved in the organization and sponsorship of the Walkathon which is hoping to build on the success of previous years.
Everyone is welcome and the Cudeca team and sponsors do a great job to ensure there are plenty of activities for a fun packed day! The meeting point will be the promenade area just in front of Sunset Beach Club and participants can register for the walk from 9:30am. (more…)
The Volvo World Match Play Championship heads back to the spectacular Finca Cortesin course in Casares for its 2012 edition.
This year half of the 24 man field will include players who play in the US PGA Tour (Apparently this is the first time this has happened).
The draw for the round-robin group format which will take place on the Thursday and Friday will include six major champions: Darren Clarke, Martin Kaymer, Charl Schwartzel, Graeme McDowell, Paul Lawrie and Retief Goosen. Last year’s champion Ian Poulter will also be back to defend his title; we can only hope that he puts on as impressive a display as he did last year! (more…)
Malaga is getting ready to celebrate the 5th edition of its ‘White Night’ (La Noche en Blanco) cultural event. Last year the Costa del Sol’s capital was flooded with just over 200,000 visitors who flocked to experience some of the activities and entertainment on offer during this unique evening.
Unfortunately, this year the event has been hit by the economic crisis and will suffer an important 50% reduction in its budget. Although the overall investment in the event wont reach €60,000, the mayor of Malaga, Francisco dela Torre, has publicly stated that the program for this years event will be more ambitious and will offer more spaces and activities.
Just a quick reminder that during the ‘White Night’ all activities in the official program are free! If you’re interested, you’ll have to head to Malaga on the evening of the 12th May between 8:00pm and 2:00am. (more…)
Last Saturday (5th May) the Bilbao based Cherry Boppers presented their new album in the Moonlight Theatre.
We didn’t want to miss it and were there to take a few photos and video clips of the show! (See below).
The Cherry Boppers’ powerful live show and unique mix of funk, jazz and rock made for a fantastic evening of entertainment; hopefully they’ll come back again for their next album launch 😉
