Starlite

The action area of the internationally known Starlite, with its epicenter in Marbella for years, is expanding. At least that is the intention of the promoters, who also want to bring it to the town of Estepona. The proposal has been approved by the Andalusian government, which agreed Tuesday to declare Estepona’s Starlite Music of strategic importance.

According to details released after the Andalusian government council, the initiative will involve an investment of 286 million euros and the creation of 450 jobs.

The project, located in the La Panera district, envisions the construction of the City of Music and the Audiovisual City. The former will have an area of 11 hectares and the construction of a boulevard with a lake, a central plaza, restaurants, an artists’ area and an auditorium for large music shows with a capacity of 15,000 people. The operation also includes the construction of a hotel with a capacity of 200 rooms and a conference center, among other things.

On the other hand, The Audiovisual City will cover nearly 6 acres and consist of several recording studios and sets of between 1,500 and 3,000 square meters of equipment warehouses and internal service areas.
