Sports will take center stage in the lead-up to the San Miguel Fair with a special program designed to promote healthy lifestyles, community, and citizen participation.
The Councilor for Sports, Ramón Alcaide, highlighted that the program combines established events with new proposals, thanking the local sports community for their involvement. He encouraged residents and visitors to register through the Torremolinos Despega App.
The agenda will kick off on August 29 with the XXVI Bajondillo-Carihuela Swimming Crossing. On September 5, the II Torremolinos Functional Race, the Playamar Beach Volleyball Tournament, and the Youth Triathlon Interclub Meeting will take place. On September 6, the Pool Games Festival will be held at the Virgen del Carmen III pool.
