After cooking on the fire and starting from midnight, are burned sawdust or rag dolls made especially for the occasion with current events themes and that in Malaga are called j\u00faas (Judas). Furthermore, it has become a tradition to jump over the fire and immediately after swim in the ocean or at least get your feet wet and make three wishes.<\/p>\n<p>To know all the rituals of the Night of San Juan you walk through Am\u00e0re Beach. You can enjoy juggling, performances, fireworks and a musical duo that liven up the dinner menu for a special night.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amarehotels.com\/blog\/saint-john-eve\/\"><strong>Enjoy the magic of the Saint John\u2019s Eve in Costa del Sol<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>PokerStars Marbella Festival<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fuerte-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/poker-stars-marbellla.jpg\" alt=\"PokerStars Marbella\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PokerStars Marbella Festival is usually held in June and is the poker event that brings together two of the most important circuits in Europe, the United Kingdom and Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT) and the Estrellas Poker Tour (ESPT).<\/p>\n<p>With a packed calendar of tournaments and events for players of all levels, including a high roller, night turbos, live satellite and a Main Event of 1.000 \u20ac + 100 \u20ac, attracts players from all over Europe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Marbella Design<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.fuerte-group.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/marbella-design.jpg\" alt=\"Marbella Design\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This design fair was created by the same team who came up with ART MARBELLA to showcase the different international design work that stands out for its high quality and creativity.
