Mijas will come alive with the flavours and sounds of Spain as Mijas Iberica returns to Parque Andalucia on Thursday, June 6 and Friday, June 7. This popular event brings together everything people love about Spanish food and culture, with a special focus on ham, music and local products.
Now in its third year, Mijas Iberica offers two evenings of food, drink and entertainment. From 6pm to midnight, visitors can enjoy a wide range of Iberian products, including Spanish ham, cheese, cured meats, wine and cocktails. Everything is priced to be accessible, making it easy for locals and tourists to join the fun.
Live music will fill the park throughout the event, creating a lively atmosphere where friends and families can relax and enjoy a taste of traditional Spain. The weekend highlight will take place on Friday evening with the national ham-cutting contest, where six of the best cutters from around the country will compete for a place in the final at Alimentaria 2026 in Barcelona.
Corte de Autor organises the event with support from the Mijas Town Hall, Sabor a Malaga and more than 40 local businesses. Councillor Silvia Marin said the festival boosts the local economy and celebrates the area’s strong gastronomic traditions.
Mijas Iberica is free to enter and promises a flavour-filled celebration for all ages.
