Update: Please note that the Christmas show programmed for Sunday the 19th December has been cancelled. The show on Monday 20th goes ahead as planned.
Christmas is just around the corner and to get us all into the festive spirit, there will be a fantastic christmas Show taking place in our Moonlight Bar the weekend before christmas.
Produced and performed by the team at Entertain in Spain, (they were also responsible for the hugely successful Back to the 40’s show a couple of months ago) the show is the perfect excuse to enjoy a fun evening out with all the family!
You’ll be treated to all your favourite christmas carols, songs and music, all performed by some of the most talented singers and performers on the Coast. The beauty of these shows is that you also have a large screen video show throughout the performance which complements the live singing; it truly is a unique experience and a must see!
During the show’s interval, you be able to sample some warm mince pies and a glass of mulled wine; if you are lucky, you might also win one of the fantastic prizes in the Christmas Charity Raffle!
There will be two showings of the Costa del Sol Christmas Show: The first will be on Sunday the 19th December (Update: the Sunday show has been cancelled) and the second on Monday the 20th December. The shows start at 8pm; tickets are €20 for adults and €12 for children under 12 and Senior Citizens. Please call 655 087 198 or visit www.entertaininspain.com to purchase tickets or for more information about the show.
Don’t forget…..write it down on your calendar; 19th and 20th December at the Moonlight Theatre at Sunset Beach Club Hotel in Benalmadena.
Here are some photos and video from the Blues at Moonlight Music Festival held last weekend at our Moonlight Cabaret Bar. The event proved to be a great success with some fantastic live performances…… bands from all over Europe and the USA delighted the crowd with the best Blues, Rock & Roll and Swing music!

I can’t believe we’re almost at the end of October; we’ll be singing Christmas carols in no time! As you can imagine, Christmas and New Year are busy times for us here at the hotel and an incredible amount of work goes in to preparing for the Christmas festivities.
One of the most important items on the “To Do” list is the preparation of our yearly Festive Programme. Well, I’m pleased to say that the new programme is available for you to view or download on our website. – Sunset Beach Club Festive Programme
If you aren’t sure about where to spend this Christmas, you may want to take a look at the menus for the Christmas Day Lunch and the New Year’s Eve Gala Dinner; they look fantastic! Have we convinced you yet? If you need a little more convincing, just have a look at our special rates for this winter….. see, I told you!
A great Festive Programme and Christmas in the Sun, what more could you ask for?
We had a full house for the “Back to the 40’s” Show at the Moonlight on Monday evening! Hundreds of people enjoyed a great evening of singing and dancing and judging by the applause, the night was a great success.
Here’s a few photos I took throughout the show as well as a short video with various clips.(please excuse the video editing ;-))
