Bookings and opening rules

Follow the official link before you buy. Full walking days: Málaga itinerary.

Treat the two fortifications separately

  • Alcazaba and Gibralfaro have separate entrances and seasonal opening hours, with admission ending before closing. A combined ticket does not remove the journey between them.Source: Málaga city council — Alcazaba and Gibralfaro · checked Sep 2026
  • The Roman Theatre visitor route normally opens Tuesday to Sunday. Start at its opening time if entering the archaeological site rather than viewing it only from the street.Source: Junta de Andalucía — Roman Theatre · checked Sep 2026
