The town has a number of festivals and celebrations including a carnival celebrated in February, and the Crosses in May with processions, religious performances and traditional flower arrangements around the figure of the Holy Cross. From the 24th to the 28th of May festivities include various recreational activities, the pilgrimage to Vallehermoso, and the release of young bulls through the town.

Historic places of interest
The most important monuments are the parish church of Church of Nuestra Señora de la Encarnación (Our Lady of the Incarnation), built at the beginning of the 16th century over the site of a fort, with various modifications in the 18th and 19th century. The county council, in the Plaza de la Constitución, occupies the old site of the convent-hospital of Santa Catalina, where the palace of Montellano is located. Other places of notable interest are the archaeological sites and remains of Arabic origin such as the old fort of Fahala, the watchtower of Ubrique, Roman remains in the Fuente del Sol, and the fifteenth century Moor mill of the Corchos (Molino Morisco). The mill is one of the few examples of traditional water-powered mills which still exists in the province of Malaga. It was used for flour milling, and later to mill cork to provide insulating material for the exportation of grapes. Today the Mill has reverted to a flour mill using power produced by the water from an irrigation ditch that is supplied by the Fahala river. On the road to Mijas, there is the chapel of the Cristo de la Agonía, dating from the 18th century, and at the edge of the Coín to Málaga road is the fountain of the Doce Caños or Fuente Lucena. Two other chapels - the 17th century chapel of San Sebastian and the chapel of Vera Cruz, which has a singular three bodied tower and a triangular structure, are the seats of two brotherhoods, known as the "moraos" and the "verdes".
