From a derelict drive-in to one of southern Europe's most epic event venues. This is how Málaga Forum came to be.
Founded in 2024, Málaga Forum took a historic city site and rebuilt it from the ground up as a venue capable of hosting the biggest shows in southern Spain. Concerts, festivals, brand events, and productions of any scale.
Málaga Forum sits on the site of the former Autocine Málaga, one of the city's most iconic spaces. Where people once watched films from their cars, they now watch headliners from a crowd of thousands.
The site covers 16,000 m² with capacity for up to 10,000 people. The infrastructure is built for serious productions: sound, lighting, load-in access, multiple distinct zones, and the flexibility to reconfigure for any format.
In the two years since opening, the venue has hosted urban music nights, international artist tours, food festivals, brand activations, and corporate events. The same space. Completely different experiences.
The aim has always been clear: to bring to Málaga the calibre of events you'd expect in Madrid, London, or Barcelona. Not one day. Now.

The Autocine Málaga site is transformed into a 16,000 m² live events venue. The first shows sell out within weeks.
The venue establishes itself quickly as Andalusia's go-to space for large-format events, selling out its first big concerts and proving the appetite is there.
Anuel AA, Black Eyed Peas, Arcángel, and Juan Luis Guerra all play Málaga Forum. The venue takes its place on the national touring circuit.
The programme expands to include food festivals, brand activations, corporate productions, and immersive cultural events. The venue proves it is not just a concert space.
Tom Jones, Rodrigo Cuevas, and a full summer programme confirm Málaga Forum's place as southern Europe's most ambitious independent venue.

16,000 m² and room for 10,000 people. Big enough for a major tour date, flexible enough for a 500-person private dinner.
One site. Multiple distinct zones. The configuration changes for every event so the venue never looks the same twice.
Anuel AA, Black Eyed Peas, Juan Luis Guerra, and over two years of sell-out shows. The audience in Málaga is ready. We know because we have done it.
