Cine Abierto
With the summer heat suffocating at times, getting outdoors once the sun has set could well be the perfect remedy.
That’s why, as part of the Festival de Málaga, the city hall every summer launches the Cine Abierto series of open-air screenings in various locations.
The showings cater for wide audiences, especially families, and are free to view though some venues are subject to capacity controls. All films are shown in Spanish, with subtitles.
