Soho Málaga - Art District

A central district and symbol of urban art and underground culture in the city of Málaga, thanks to a citizen-led initiative.

Its most striking feature is perhaps the large graffiti murals that adorn some of its buildings. On these walls, you can see works by internationally renowned graffiti artists such as Obey and D*face. The district is easily explored on foot and is very close to Málaga's main tourist area. Its streets reveal independent local businesses with a strong identity, several art and culture centres such as private galleries, artists' studios, the La Alameda Theatre, and the Contemporary Art Centre, numerous restaurants serving local, organic, and gourmet cuisine, and spaces with modern and functional street furniture. In addition, the Soho Urban Market is held every fourth Sunday of the month, where more than fifty local artisans, designers, and producers offer their original and unique creations.Soho, or the Art District, is the result of a citizen-led initiative to revitalise the area, which now has institutional support in its urban development plan.Location: next to the Port of Málaga, it borders the southern edge of the Alameda, the Heredia Wharf, Plaza de la Marina, and the Guadalmedina River.
