Save for the winter, there are several festivities and processions going on each month in and around Marbella, most of them religious.
- Easter week: During the Santa Semana, processions are a common sight in the city.
- May: Pilgrimage to Cruz de Juanar
- June: La Fiera, a week-long party in the old town to honor San Bernabé who is the city's patron saint.
- July: The festival of Virgen del Carmen
- August: Pilgrimage to the Virgin Mother
- October: The fair and festival to honour the parton of nearby San Pedro Alcantara
- November: Día del Tostón, a day celebrated by roasting chestnuts
Between the patron saint festivals in June and October, also several smaller fairs take place, the Feria y Fiestas de Nueva Andalucía, Las Chapas and El Ángel. In addition each neighbourhood of Marbella has its own "day" sometime during the year.
