Christmas in Estepona
In December, Estepona's streets are lit up with Christmas lights and the council organises a programme of concerts, cultural events and activities for all ages.
During December, Estepona's main streets are decorated with Christmas lights. The council organises a varied programme of cultural, festive and leisure events for all ages: concerts, children's activities and celebrations that bring the town centre to life throughout the month.
Christmas in Estepona has a scale that makes it welcoming. The streets of the historic centre, crowded with visitors in summer, reclaim the rhythm of local life in December. The lights transform an evening walk through the centre into something visually different.
December in Estepona is quiet and accessible. If the goal is to discover the city without the pressure of summer, this is one of the best times to visit.
Before you go
The Christmas lights stay on from early December until approximately 6 January.
