San Juan Night in Málaga is a magical celebration that marks the start of summer, filled with bonfires and rituals along the beaches. Every year on June 23, thousands gather to enjoy a special night where bonfires are lit to burn “júas” (rag dolls) and make wishes. It’s also a tradition to jump the ocean waves at midnight as a symbol of purification and good luck. With music, fireworks, and a festive atmosphere, this celebration is one of the most anticipated along the Malaga coast.
