▩ Sould Park Málaga: A New Era of Family Fun on the Costa del Sol

Málaga is set to gain a major new family entertainment destination with Sould Park Málaga, an ambitious €15 million project by Fuengirola‑based Sould Park. Known for its popular kids’ parks across Spain, Sould Park is bringing its talent for fun and innovation to a brand-new, 15,000 m² leisure complex next to Plaza Mayor shopping centre, with construction already underway and an anticipated opening in mid-2026.

From Fuengirola to Málaga: A Proven Model

Sould Park began over 30 years ago in Catalonia and established its headquarters in Fuengirola in 2017. In 2024, it reported €32 million in turnover and employed around 500 staff, while operating multiple parks, bowling alleys, and trampoline centres across Spain—and even expanding into Portugal. Their flagship park in Fuengirola serves as a template for the new Málaga site, offering a wide range of indoor and outdoor attractions, all using rechargeable play‑cards to access rides and games.

What Sould Park Málaga Will Offer

Once complete, the new park will feature around 10,000 m² of outdoor mechanical attractions and 2,200 m² of indoor entertainment, along with a themed 2,500 m² mini‑golf course. Highlights include:

• A small roller coaster imported from Dubai

• Bumper cars, a drop tower, merry‑go‑round, car and motorbike circuits

• Water rides, trampolines, duck‑fishing ponds, bouncy castles and a children’s train

• A cutting‑edge 7D cinema with multisensory effects

• The largest bowling alley in Andalucía, with 24 lanes, a sports bar and karaoke rooms

• VIP event spaces and car parks

Entry to the site will be free, with visitors paying per attraction using the secure card system .

Jobs, Tourism, and Vibrant Community Spaces

The project is expected to create around 80 direct jobs and close to 120 additional indirect positions, supporting Málaga’s local economy and tourism sector. Drawing an estimated three million visitors annually, it’s aimed at energising the city’s leisure scene and becoming a key addition to the Plaza Mayor area. According to founder Miguel Ángel Notario, this is “the largest family leisure centre in Málaga” and fills a long‑standing gap on the Costa del Sol.

Architecture, Access, and Timeline

Sould Park Málaga is well-positioned for convenience and integration. Situated adjacent to the Plaza Mayor centre and near Málaga Airport, it will be easily accessible by public transport, making it a perfect fit for both residents and tourists. Construction began in early 2025 following permit approval, and the park is slated to open by summer 2026.

A Vision for Modern, Inclusive Family Fun

Sould Park has earned a reputation for innovation: its Fuengirola locations feature amenities like trampoline parks, inflatable castles, mini‑coasters and shooting galleries, all managed via safe, card‑based systems . Visitors appreciated the convenience and cleanliness, though earlier when parks began, a few safety concerns were raised—now routinely addressed by the teams . The Málaga development continues this trend, combining engaging rides with convenient indoor options like bowling and karaoke. The mid‑week or rainy-day family alternative is much needed in the area.

Final Thoughts

Sould Park Málaga promises to be a major milestone in local entertainment—a fresh, well-rounded leisure destination that blends thrilling rides, dining options, and multi-format fun under one roof. Ideal for families, birthdays or casual outings, it bridges indoor and outdoor dynamics to suit all-weather, all-ages enjoyment. With its strategic location, strong backing from a proven operator, and clear economic and social benefits, the park is positioned to become a staple of Málaga’s entertainment offering. Keep an eye on the development timeline—when summer 2026 arrives, Sould Park Málaga will be ready for its close-up in the Hot & New spotlight.
