Marbella’s municipal government plans to begin a full refurbishment of the Centro de Participación Activa in Nueva Andalucía towards the end of 2026. The centre is used by older residents, and the project is intended to expand its capacity, according to an announcement on the city’s Social Rights website.
Mayor Ángeles Muñoz met with the centre’s board to discuss the proposed works and hear concerns from older users. The municipality said details were discussed with the board, but the material available does not specify the construction schedule, budget or which facilities will be affected.
The council says the renovation will allow the centre to triple its capacity. It has not provided a current capacity figure or explained whether the increase refers to the number of users, available places or another measure, so the scale of the change cannot yet be quantified.
The project concerns a municipal facility in Nueva Andalucía, rather than the separate centres in Las Chapas or other parts of Marbella. The city’s announcement describes the planned works as an integral refurbishment of the complex, but does not list the spaces or services to be upgraded.
For older residents who use the centre, the main practical question will be how activities and access are handled during construction. No temporary arrangements or possible closures have been announced in the supplied information.
The next stated milestone is the expected start of works towards the end of 2026. The municipality has not published a completion date or further technical details.
