February 26 to March 8 Mamma Mia! The Musical in the city of Murcia
All your Abba favourites in one of the most successful musicals ever at the Auditorio Víctor Villegas in Murcia
The smash hit Abba musical Mamma Mia!, which has already played to a total audience of well over 600,000 in the Gran Vía in Madrid, is coming to the Auditorio Víctor Villegas in Murcia at the end of February and during the first week of March with 14 show scheduled and tickets already selling fast.
The show is produced by SOM Produce, who have already brought shows such as Billy Elliot, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Grease, West Side Story, Matilda, Chicago and The Book of Mormon to Spain, and has been awarded various prizes since it opened in Madrid. Needless to say, perhaps the best-loved version is the movie featuring Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried and co, but this one gives us the excitement and glamour of a full-blown live stage show and of course loads of our favourite songs penned by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus!
The shows in Murcia take place as follows:
Thursday February 26: at 20.00.
Friday February 27: at 17.00 and 21.00.
Saturday February 28: at 17.00 and 21.00.
Sunday March 1: at 16.30.

Affordable beach front accommodation in the heart of Murcia golf and water sports country!
The accommodation offered for rental by Apartamentos La Encarnación in the heart of Los Alcázares are a great opportunity for visitors to the Costa Cálida to enjoy the very best of the Mar Menor and surrounding area all year round, and at extremely affordable prices.
Guests are accommodated in the apartments located on the seafront next to the historic Hotel La Encarnación, which was built in the early 20th century to cater for the emerging spa tourism market and is now the oldest hotel still open in the Region of Murcia. This area remains much favoured by expats from the UK and other northern European countries and all of the apartments are a short stone’s throw of the Mar Menor, the largest saltwater lagoon in Europe, making these true front-line beach properties!
Most of them have two bedrooms and can comfortably sleep 4, while 1- and 3-bedroom options are also available, and special year-round discount prices are available for readers of Murcia Today and associated pages by simply quoting the reference “MURCIA TODAY” when booking! (65€ for 1-bed, 85€ for 2-bed, 115€ for 3-bed, all prices per night).
All apartments are fully equipped with electrical appliances, kitchenware, bathroom and bed linen, and although they are self-catering guests often prepare to eat out locally at extremely affordable prices – Los Alcázares is not one of those beach resorts which closes down for the off season, and most restaurants are open all year round both in the town centre and in Los Narejos.
At the same time, they are within a short drive of at least 25 golf courses, right in the heart of Costa Cálida golf country and only slightly further from the southern Costa Blanca. The most prestigious courses are arguably those at La Manga Club and Hacienda del Álamo (both around half an hour by car) while the closest are those of La Serena, Mar Menor Golf Resort and Roda Golf, all just a 10-minute drive away. If you venture just slightly further north the options include Lo Romero, Villamartín, Las Ramblas and Las Colinas, all providing stiff challenges for all levels of golfer!
But don’t imagine that the sporting activities in the area are limited to golf! The calm waters and prevailing breezes in the Mar Menor make for ideal conditions in which to learn water sports, including sailing and kiteboarding, and plenty of aquatic sports centres are available along the inland shore of the lagoon all year round for those wishing to try their hand at mastering the seas!
Whatever your preferences while visiting the Mar Menor area, the La Encarnación apartments in Los Alcázares and Los Narejos give you a comfortable, practical and affordable place to stay while enjoying the many delights of the Costa Cálida!
