"Empowering Marbella: Unleashing a Wave of Women's Safety in the Face of Predatory Threats at the Festival"

"Marbella Festival Unleashes a Radiant Wave of Women's Safety: Fun, Awareness, and No-Nonsense!"

Get ready for a week of exhilaration and empowerment at the upcoming San Bernabé Fair and Festivities in Marbella from June 6 to June 12. This year, the festival isn't just about rides, music, and delicious food; it's also taking a stand for women's safety like never before.



The Marbella Council has teamed up with renowned experts to tackle the pressing issue of sexual predators and the dangers faced by women. On Wednesday, June 7, the brilliant Dr. Carmen Agüera will take the stage to unveil the sneaky tricks of drink spiking and chemical submission – favourite tactics of those vile predators. This talk is aimed at our local heroes, the esteemed members of the Local Police and Civil Protection, to equip them with knowledge about the substances used, symptoms to watch out for, and how to respond swiftly and efficiently.


But that's not all! Dr. Patricia Alemán, along with nurses Teresa Báez and María José Serrano from the Costa del Sol Hospital, will charm an audience of approximately 400 cool secondary school students. Their mission? To educate these young minds on recognizing sexual abuse, providing them with the information they need to seek help if they ever find themselves victims or witnesses.


The festival's sixth consecutive year of prevention campaigns will also feature a designated contact point. At this magical spot, the Equality Delegation's finest experts and law enforcement personnel will be on hand, ready to offer invaluable advice, information, and support in the face of sexist aggression.


And let's not forget the fashion-forward aspect of this epic event! Brace yourself – literally – for fashionable bracelets carrying bold messages like 'Harassing is not flirting' and 'Only yes is yes.' We're spreading the word in style! Plus, as a timely reminder to all party-goers, we'll be distributing lids for your glasses, because nothing spoils the fun like unwanted substances finding their way into your beverage.


So, get your dancing shoes ready, your voices prepared to roar, and your spirits lifted for a Marbella Festival that goes beyond the norm. Join us in celebrating women's safety, enlightenment, and a dose of unforgettable fun. Together, we can create a vibrant and secure environment for everyone!

Sunshine, Seaside, and Financial Incentives: Property Investments Surge on the Costa del Sol Following Wealth Tax Elimination

Property investment on the Costa del Sol has grown increasingly appealing in 2024, largely attributed to its enhanced tax benefits for expatriates. One key development is the elimination of the wealth tax, which was formerly imposed on individuals with global assets over €700,000, affecting both residents and non-residents. This change has opened doors for affluent individuals considering buying properties and possibly settling in the region. This transformation is pivotal for potential investors, particularly when coupled with the area's array of tax incentives. These benefits include low inheritance or gift taxes, favourable rates for investment income and capital gains taxes ranging between 19% to 26%, and advantageous treatment of private pensions as investment income. Moreover, modifications to the Model 720 form, mandatory for declaring foreign assets over €50,000, have enhanced clarity and eased worries about hefty fines. Previously, non-compliance or errors in filing could ...
