Do not know about the Fuengirola procession, but in Arroyo it starts about 6.30 from Tivoli World on 5th January.

Re: three kings fuengirola
In Malaga city they come on the tug in the docks, along with the Mayor and his tongue cleaners and there bodyguards, I`ve always been curious why a mayor needs a close protection team.
I remember our one and only time stood waiting in the docks for an hour, right at the front, woundering where all the people were, then they arrived at the time the kings were due, pushed in front of us, which resulted in my Spanish wife fighting with an Andulucian women who seemed to think she had more right to be there than i did.
I never turn up on time anymore, i just push in like everybody else and fight for the sweets on the floor and i never go to Malaga city its easier to see the small parade in the town or go to Bilbao for the well arranged and polite fun time.
