Málaga · Sports & events
SPORT & SEASON
Football at La Rosaleda, a serious basketball club and a December marathon along the seafront.
Málaga CF
La Rosaleda holds around thirty thousand and fills whichever division the club is in. The season runs August to May; buy through the club, not the touts.
Unicaja basketball
The city's basketball club plays at the Martín Carpena arena from September to June, with European nights on top of the Spanish league.
Málaga Marathon
The Zurich marathon runs in December along the seafront and through the old town — flat, cool and popular with northern Europeans escaping winter.
Padel and paddleboarding
Padel clubs across the city rent courts by the hour, and kayak and SUP hire operates from Pedregalejo and La Malagueta through the warm months.
