Nerja is getting ready to add another jewel to its cultural life: a brand-new open-air amphitheatre by the sea.
The project is set for Plaza Fabrica de los Cangrejos near Torrecilla promenade and the Fuente de Europa. Now, it has gone out to tender with a budget of €271,575, fully funded by European Union NextGenerationEU resources through the Nerja Sostenible plan.
Mayor José Alberto Armijo explained that the amphitheatre will blend into its coastal setting while offering a purpose-built space for performances, concerts, and cultural events. “It’s designed as a meeting point for locals and visitors alike,” he added. The venue will feature stepped seating facing the Mediterranean, giving audiences some nice views as part of the show.
Culture councillor Ana María Muñoz encouraged companies to submit bids, reminding them that all conditions and requirements are available through the Public Sector Procurement Platform. The deadline for applications is 20 days from publication.
For Nerja, this is another cultural investment. A seaside stage with sweeping views means a new way to experience art in the town, while also giving tourism an important boost. If all goes to plan, evenings in Nerja could soon mean live shows under the stars, with the sea as a backdrop.
