The Starlite Occident festival in Marbella is gearing up for a week of concerts featuring names ranging from international pop to hard rock and merengue. From Monday, July 6 to Saturday, July 11, the Auditorium will host artists such as Maroon 5, Deep Purple and Elvis Crespo, in a lineup that promises to fill the nights of the Costa del Sol.
Grupo Frontera opens the week
On Monday, July 6, the Mexican group Grupo Frontera will take to the Starlite stage for the first time. With over 35 million monthly listeners on digital platforms, the group has brought its northern sounds and cumbia to audiences worldwide without losing its essence.
Among their biggest hits are 'Coqueta', 'De lunes a lunes' and their latest release 'No lo ves'. The concert will start at 22:00, with doors opening at 19:00. Tickets can still be purchased on the official festival website.
Maroon 5, the big event on Tuesday
On Tuesday, July 7, the American band Maroon 5, a multiple Grammy Award winner with six multi-platinum albums, will perform at the Auditorium. In 2025, Billboard named them the best band and the eleventh most important artist of the 21st century.
With over 750 million singles sold, the Los Angeles group has managed to maintain its unique style: a blend of rock and pop with impeccable compositions and straightforward lyrics. The concert will kick off at 22:00, with doors opening at 20:00. Tickets are still available.
Deep Purple, hard rock legend
On Thursday, July 9, the iconic British band Deep Purple lands at Starlite for the first time. With over 100 million albums sold and a career spanning seven decades, hits like 'Smoke on the Water', 'Highway Star' and 'Hush' will resonate in the Auditorium.
The concert will begin at 22:00, and doors will open at 19:00. Tickets are on sale on the official festival website.
Rick Astley and Elvis Crespo close the week
On Friday, July 10, 80s pop idol Rick Astley will take the stage. His hit 'Never Gonna Give You Up' turned him into a global phenomenon in 1987, and since then he has maintained his status as an international star with songs like 'Together Forever' and 'Whenever You Need Somebody'. The concert will be at 22:00, with doors opening at 20:00.
The grand finale will be on Saturday, July 11, with Puerto Rican Elvis Crespo, who is celebrating the 20th anniversary of his historic album 'Suavemente'. The audience will enjoy classics like 'Suavemente', 'Tu sonrisa', 'Píntame' and 'Nuestra canción', in a night of merengue designed for dancing. Doors will open at 20:00 and the concert will start at 22:00.
For the residents of Marbella and the Costa del Sol, this week presents a unique opportunity to see world-class artists without leaving the province. Starlite thus consolidates itself as one of the reference festivals of the summer in Spain, offering a blend of nostalgia, rhythm and grand productions.
Tickets for all concerts are available on the official Starlite Occident website. It is recommended to purchase them in advance, as some shows may sell out.
