La Térmica Malaga

Address: Av. de los Guindos, 48, Carretera de Cádiz, 29004 Málaga, Spain

La Térmica is Málaga’s coolest culture hub—literally and creatively. Located in a former 20th-century orphanage just west of the city center, this massive space has been transformed into a buzzing center for contemporary art, music, design, literature, and everything in between. Think of it as the place where Málaga’s creative pulse comes to life.

From underground photography exhibits and indie film screenings to tattoo festivals and pop-up food markets, La Térmica’s calendar is packed year-round. It’s especially popular with the 20–40 crowd looking for inspiration or just a night out that’s a little different. Kid-friendly events and open-air concerts make it a go-to for families too.

But it’s more than just a venue—it’s a think tank for fresh ideas. Artists, musicians, and entrepreneurs collaborate here to spark new projects, often with a global twist. If you’re into spaces that challenge the norm and celebrate creativity in all forms, La Térmica is where you want to be.
