Best theaters in Marbella: find options near you

The largest shopping centre in the area, offering a wide mix of international fashion brands, restaurants, cafés, a cinema, and a large hypermarket, with spacious parking and easy access from the highway.

Years ago it had far better quality shops. But guess the extortionate gets forced the smaller shops out. I have eaten at KFC francise outlets for years. The outdoor terrace is dutifully cool with views over the Mediterranean. But i was surprised when charged 10c for small ketchup sachet. Earlier in the week were not charged in Fuengirola. But the owners try to extract as much as possible. Kfc staff are all most helpfull

Plenty of parking (overground is free and underground is charged). A spacious mall with a good variety of mid to high end(ish) shops, particularly for clothing (men and women). Good accessibility to all floors and good wash room facilities. A generous and varied selection of eating places but remember you’ll still be in a shopping mall! Beware of pick pockets but don’t let that put you off, just be aware.

La Cañada in Marbella is an absolutely fantastic shopping center! From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted by ample, free parking, surrounded by beautiful palm trees, setting a wonderfully relaxed tone. Once inside, you’ll discover a truly impressive array of shops – literally everything you could possibly need, from fashion and electronics to homeware and groceries. It’s a very nice mall with a great atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to spend a few hours Browse or ticking off your shopping list. Highly recommend!

Great shopping mall. Over 100 shops so easy to spend hours there looking around, you can find anything you need. Also a variety of restaurant that offer great food and has a massive hyper market. Lots of parking both outside and underground.

Huge shopping centre, some nice cafes and outlets! Hard to fathom the size until you walk it! Worth a visit if there is you need from any of the major brands!

A nice experience This is a shopping centre for everybody, doesn’t matter you have or not money, cash or on the credit card. The prices are affordable for everybody. There are a lot of shops, of all known brands and also of their national brands. And there are 2 food courts and also you can eat as you walk all over the mall because there are a lot of places you can buy food. So, don’t worry about the food: there is plenty of it. Also there are a few coffee shops. I strongly recommend “Cafe Luz de Luna”, a coffee shop where they have, in my opinion, the best ice cream in the city, and the largest portions. Try coffee espresso: it is the “genuinest” coffe I’ve drank in the city. The toilets are very clean and there are a lot of them, no bad small and no dirty on the floor, as you can find in some places. What seems very unusual for a mall, shopping centre, was the natural light. There are a lot of windows, on the upper side of the isles between shops, through where the sun light invade the mall, creating a sensation of relaxation. And there is a lot of artificial light, on the other places, where there are no windows. There are a lot of plants, real not from plastic as you see in such pIaces. I loved that. As I said there are a lot of restaurants, local and international and the Mc… and KF… are there, absolutely. And there is also a huge supermarket – Alcampo. I definitely recommend this mall for shopping or just if you have some time to loose.

What an incredible Flamenco experience in Marbella, just across from La Fonda Heritage. Even though there are several shows every day, the performance felt completely unique and deeply emotional. From the very first moment you could feel the intensity in the room. The dancers clearly enjoyed performing together, and that joy and connection translated directly to the audience. The rhythm, the powerful singing, the incredible guitar playing, and especially the expressive faces and movements of the dancers created a truly mesmerizing atmosphere. The venue itself is quite small, but that intimacy makes the experience even more powerful. You are so close to the performers that you can feel every beat, every step, every emotion. A small space filled with huge emotions — an unforgettable flamenco night in Marbella.

I recently attended a flamenco show and it was absolutely incredible! The performances were extremely professional, and the energy and intensity throughout the evening were simply captivating. The rhythm, precision, and emotional expression in every dance were outstanding. Highly recommended to anyone who appreciates authentic artistry. An amazing show from start to finish!

Excellent and very professional show! We saw flamenco few times and were skeptical as to whether its just another tourist trap. But dancers were real masters, ladies and especially young gentleman, so we enjoyed the experience. Music and signing was great too.

An absolutely beautiful performance!!! The intimate venue means that you get to see every move up close. The musical and dance talent on display is unforgettable.

Very intimate setting with small audience sizes for this truly authentic and improvised performance. All performers were amazing and very passionate about their art. Loved the show. Ole!

This is an absolute must if you’re in Marbella. It was more than I hoped for in a Spanish flamenco experience. The venue is beautiful, the music was all acoustic with no mics so it felt very intimate and authentic. The dancers come up and down the hall so there’s not a bad seat to be in. The artists were so talented and soulful. I went with everyone in our family vacation and it was a hit all around. Highly recommend, worth every penny. My suggestion is not to drive here, it’s a small walkable area with very limited parking and very narrow roads. I suggest a taxi, or walking if you can. The location is beautiful so walking is the best option to see more of the area.

Had an absolutely incredible time there! From the moment the show started, the passion and raw emotion of the dancers, singer and guitarist were mesmerizing. The intimate setting made it feel so personal and powerful. If you want to experience authentic flamenco, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!

Very lovely cinema. Watched Spider-Man here. They offer almost every movie in VOSE (Original language with Spanish subtitles) and in Spanish language, so you can pick whichever fits you the most. The auditorium itself is clean, but a little cramped and the one I experienced lacked tables. Comfortable enough, a little expensive for food and drinks and candy, but the tickets themselves are decently priced. Would definitely come again!

Excellent cinema with quality seating and audiovisual elements. The food is great and there’s plenty to do before a movie in the shopping centre. Movies are available in English 😎

We loved this cinema, it was kept nicely, and we had a good experience, the only thing was the staff and lots of popcorn on the floor, other wise it was good

Went to see superman last night. Good crowd in but the screen was terrible. There was a white mark down the left hand side and they couldn’t manage full screen so was half the size it was supposed to be. Luckily the film was good but I’ll have to find another cinema to watch it again.

No bundle for families of 4, toilets are just so incredibly dirty every time. Screen are ok but most of time they don’t use the full size. Not great, tired of this place and the fact that you do nothing about it

Super slow service, cut down on workers and not helpful at all ( wish I could rate a 0 but it’s not possible ) shameeeee

Was.really happy going there to see the VOSE movies, but today l went looking forward to see one of the movies they scheduled for 4h. My surprise was when l found that they changed the entire schedule and none of those movies r not at that time.

We like to make time for a visit and enjoy. Happily have been there twice for dance festival. Take your time to pre-plan car park, pre-theatre drink nearby, little walk, tapas after in local establishments. Gorgeous trees in courtyard.

The on line ticket service wouldn’t accept my UK mobile but we were lucky to get 2 of the last tickets for this show. Check the box office opening times. On the right side of small but plush, this theatre is very comfortable. Great view of the stage from our seats in the last row of the balcony. The flamenco show starring Eva Yerbabuena was superb. Very dramatic and effective use of darkness and minimal lighting. The dancer, three singers, a guitarist and a percussionist were all expert artistes. They worked flawlessly to create tremendous atmosphere and entertainment. The show was exceptional. Look out for upcoming programmes at this lovely venue.

The theatre is fine. Comfortable seats, large foyer, clean toilets.However, it is not well signposted and parking is a nightmare. A pity, because it could have been a lot more fun. Not really the right venue for Malakafest, a festival of mainly Blues music. Nothing to do with the theatre, but it was irritating that a 3rd of the audience arrived VERY late, whilst others were constantly getting up and down and leaving the auditorium during the performances. Very bad manners!

Overall the theatre is a lovely local theatre, but the boxes at the side are awful. I thought the second half was just an instrumental until the dancer came to the front of the stage and I realised she was there all along totally occluded.

Really enjoyed our 4 shows in Abril Danza

Comfortable seats and good accoustics

Difficult to park around !!!

Currently at the 14:20 screening of the new Mario movie. The cinema is full of posters, merchandise displays, and ads promoting themed popcorn buckets—yet they don’t even have basic cardboard ones available. It’s only the second day of the movie’s worldwide release, and a cinema of this size and reputation hasn’t stocked anything at all. I asked staff, and they confirmed there won’t be any later today, tomorrow, or at any point. To be clear, I’m not even talking about the special Luma or Yoshi buckets—just standard cardboard or metal ones. If you’re on the Costa del Sol, you’re honestly better off going a bit further to Málaga or Algeciras and visiting Yelmo Cines instead. This place simply isn’t worth your time or money.

Bad service. I asked to change the date of my ticket, they saw me 30 min outside waiting for my friend who didn’t arrive and they refused. You get 2 stars just because I’m kind. I should give 1 star. Haha

The cleaning crew began cleaning the salon when the movie was about to start. The audience had to wait in the hallway outside. No big deal except it was so hot that you literally dripped of sweat. Thought that once we were inside (the salon) there would be cooler, that they had an AC. Nope. + 30 degrees Celsius in the theater/salon as well. The sweat was dripping from our faces, as well as from our backs and legs. When we got up of our seats almost 3 hours later (we saw the latest mission impossible movie) the seat was MOIST of all the sweat. This really ruined the experience. It was a horrible experience to be honest. Would not recommend anyone to go there to watch cinema.

Since the refurbishment it’s a really nice cinema. Comfortable seats, good selection of sweets and drinks. Helpful staff

Went to the cinema this evening and the staff member who I think his name was Jose was the most helpful person that we have met since coming to Spain!😂👌🏽 very good at his job and a lovely person , this definitely is making us want to come back again!

This stupid cinema scammed me first I payed 11 euros and for what the cola tasted like ice and the popcorn was so hard and I brought Doritos from home and they thought I got it from the shop so they charged me 6 euros extra for MY DORITOS and the seats were uncomfortable

Really average cinema . Chairs aren’t that comfy . Screen rooms are small. Food isn’t good at all . Really basic but convenient. Staff is very friendly !

The best cultural initiative of the Marbella City Council, which does not provide many cultural activities. The Buñuel film club has survived several generations of municipal governments, which is a lot. It should also remain open during the summer season, which is when we citizens have the most free time, and also as a cultural draw for a tourism that the Marbella City Council should try to stop reducing to just paella and beach.La mejor iniciativa cultural del Ayuntamiento de Marbella, que no se prodiga mucho con actividades culturales. El cine club Buñuel ha sobrevivido a varias generaciones de gobiernos municipales, que es mucho. Debería permanecer abierto también en temporada estival, que es cuando más tiempo libre tenemos los ciudadanos, y también como reclamo cultural para un turismo que el Ayuntamiento de Marbella debería intentar dejar de reducirlo al de paella y playa.Translated commentShow original

Cine Club Buñuel screens auteur, independent, and art-house films. A cultural option for demanding cinephiles looking for proposals beyond the commercial circuit.El Cine Club Buñuel proyecta películas de cine de autor, independiente y de ensayo.

An indispensable space, the 2025 winter season should have already started; I fear they have had some problem and we are left without one of the few cultural activities we enjoy in Marbella.Un espacio indispensable, ya tendría que haber comenzado la temporada de invierno 2025, me temo que hayan tenido algún problema y nos quedemos sin una de las pocas actividades culturales de las que disfrutamos en Marbella.Translated commentShow original

Born with the first democratic city council. Since then, it has developed a meritorious and continuous activity. A milestone in the cultural and cinephile landscape. Screenings in the assembly hall of the Instituto Río Verde. Sessions at 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM (during the school year) with a weekly film on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and a cinephile special (VOS) on Mondays. Selected programming. By far, the best cinema. Season pass or ticket per session. Less than half the price of commercial theaters. Decent facilities after a great struggle for a seating area that wouldn’t fall apart and a projector in good condition. It calls for more budget and expansion. Well-deserved.Nacido con el primer ayuntamiento democrático. Dsde entonces ha desarrollado una actividad meritoria y continua. Un hito en el páramo cultural y cinéfilo. Proyecciones en el salón de actos del Instituto Río Verde. Sesiones de 20 y 22 horas (curso escolar) con película semanal, martes y jueves, y especial cinéfilos (VOS) los lunes. Programación seleccionada. Con diferencia, el mejor cine. Bono toda la temporada o entrada por sesión. Menos de la mitad que en sala comercial. Instalaciones dignas tras una gran lucha por un patio de butacas que no se desvencijara y un proyector en condiciones. Clama por más presupuesto y ampliación. Merecida.Translated commentShow original

Very nice cinema, the food had very nice options and was very fast. The seats were very comfy, but I would’ve preferred if they made the stairs on the side and the seats in the middle, but overall 5 stars.

Horrible experience, went to watch Odyssey yesterday… Me and the 4 other people I was with had to get tissues from the bathroom to stuff our ears in order to not go deaf. Never has it been so bad. Throughout the whole movie the sounds went of and on and lights awswell. Before the film even finished all lights were on so the final battle scene had to be watched in full light glaring back at the screen. However, I can recommend the movie Odyssey 10/10

I have been going here for years and recommend it. Very friendly staff and a nice bar where you can take drinks in proper glasses (not plastic) and crisps etc into the film. Comfortable seats and clean toilets. Plus free parking. Stunning arts of work everywhere make it an easy 5 star experience.

I appreciate staff there. I felt very bad while I was watching a movie so came out from cinema. After that one of the staff who’s called Pedro helped me a lots. He gave me water bottles, ice cubes and also tickets which give me and my family free movie for next time because we couldn’t watch most of all part. Their emergency caring was so good. Thank you so much.

Small cinema in Puerto Banus, staff is friendly, they have a selection of movies both in English and Spanish, and they show a variety of movies for children. The decor is fun, lots of paintings and different statues. As there are not many cinemas in the Marbella area that show English movies, this is a great option.

I am very surprised why people don’t go to this theater. Every time we go, there are fewer than 10 people in the movie theater. They offer free parking for 3 hours, and the staff is friendly. In my personal opinion, it’s much better than Kinopolis in Cañada.

I recently visited a cinema that unfortunately did not meet my expectations. The first thing that struck me was the smell of mold and stale air that permeated the entire venue. The seat itself was a disappointment. It was not only outdated and worn out, but also dirty and uncomfortable. The cushions were flat, and the back support was almost nonexistent. It felt like the seat hadn’t been cleaned in a long time, which made me feel compelled to keep my jacket on throughout the film. The venue itself was also in dire need of renovation. There were visible signs of wear and tear, which gave the impression that the cinema didn’t care about creating a pleasant experience for its visitors. The lighting was also dim and didn’t improve the situation.
