Torremolinos, Spain — October 2025.

This week, Torremolinos is buzzing with urban development plans, cultural celebrations, and sporting energy. From the town’s future planning to the return of its much-loved Book Fair, here’s a look at what’s happening across the coastal city.

🏙️ Urban Future on the Table

On Thursday, October 8, the Torremolinos Town Hall hosted a professional forum at the Palacio de Congresos to discuss the future of urban development in the municipality.

Experts, architects, and local planners gathered to debate the upcoming General Urban Planning Plan (PGOM) and Urban Ordinance Plan (POU) — two key frameworks that will shape how the town grows in the coming decade.

The discussion focused on sustainability, mobility, and preserving Torremolinos’ coastal identity while encouraging modern infrastructure.

📚 Book Fair Returns Under “The Light of Torremolinos”

From October 9 to 12, the 2025 Torremolinos Book Fair takes over the Marifé de Triana Boulevard.

This year’s theme — “The Light of Torremolinos” — highlights Andalusian authors and publishers, bringing together local bookshops, writers, and readers for four days of literature, signings, and cultural activities.

Workshops, poetry readings, and storytelling sessions will make the fair a must-visit event for residents and visitors alike.

💶 New Development Funds Across Málaga Province

The Spanish government has approved 12 major projects under the EDIL Plan, with €119 million in funding from the European Regional Development Fund (FEDER).

These projects will benefit 26 municipalities in Málaga province — potentially including Torremolinos — with a focus on improving infrastructure, green spaces, and digital transformation initiatives.

âš˝ Local Pride in the Copa del Rey

On the sports front, Juventud Torremolinos is gearing up for a big challenge in the Copa del Rey, facing Torrent CF from the Segunda FederaciĂłn.

The match will mark an exciting test for the local side, as fans rally behind their team and bring fresh energy to the Torremolinos sporting scene.

🌞 A Town Balancing Tradition and Progress

Between its seaside charm, literary events, and evolving city plans, Torremolinos continues to balance tradition with transformation.

Whether through books, bricks, or football, the spirit of the town shines bright this week — proving once again why it remains one of the Costa del Sol’s most dynamic communities.
