Creating a more sustainable future for Marbella

The In Transition 2012 conference is coming to Marbella on the 27th of October. The conference will take place at the Palacio de Congresos from 11.00-22.00, featuring talks about the Transition Town concept from many high profile speakers. This non-profit event costs 10€ to attend. There will also be a market featuring products from and information about local transition projects which is open to all and free to attend.

The Transition Town movement is a campaign to create more sustainable communities which reduce their carbon footprint, are less reliant on fossil fuels and equip people with the skills to respond to the changing circumstances which diminishing fossil fuels will cause. It encourages people to think globally and act locally.

In Transition 2012 is a non profit event organised by Marbella Town Hall and Arboretum Marbella and aims to inspire local politicians and residents alike to create more sustainable communities.  

Hospitality Magazine Launched on the Costa del Sol

Select Magazine, the Costa del Sol’s first trade magazine for the hospitality industry will be officially launched on 4th October at Nu Fluid in Elviria from 19.00.

The hospitality industry is the single biggest employer and generator of revenue on the Costa del Sol, yet until now this vital industry did not have a dedicated trade magazine. This new bimonthly publication has been designed to fill this gap and become the reference guide for all those working in the hospitality industry. It will be both informative and entertaining with a slick design and great interviews and profiles on celebrity chefs and local businesses.
