Spain runs one hour ahead of the UK all year, so a 3pm Premier League kick-off in England starts at 4pm in Malaga, and the 8pm game at 9pm. That is when the old-town pubs fill: Morrissey’s, on Calle Méndez Núñez, lists the Premier League on more than 12 screens, and Sherlock Holmes, by the cathedral, opens at noon every day.
Where can I watch the Premier League in Malaga? At Morrissey’s, Calle Méndez Núñez 5, which lists the Premier League, LaLiga and the Champions League on more than 12 screens; at Sherlock Holmes, Calle Molina Lario 4, from noon; and at Calanmor in La Malagueta, which asks you to book. A pint of Guinness costs 6.50 euros at the first two.
A sports pub in Malaga is a bar that shows the day’s matches on several screens and sells beer by the pint as well as the Spanish caña. The British and Irish pubs cluster within a few streets between Plaza de Uncibay and Calle Comedias, and the city’s own club, Málaga CF, plays in LaLiga EA Sports this season, according to the league.
What time the Premier League starts in Spain
Spain and the UK change their clocks on the same days, so the gap never moves:
In Spain, DAZN announced in August 2024 that it holds the rights to all 380 Premier League matches per season until 2027-28, according to DAZN. In a pub, ask which game is on rather than assuming every match is shown. For a 9pm kick-off, eat first: Spanish dinner times are explained in Malaga meal times.
Which pubs show which competitions
Morrissey’s lists LaLiga, the Champions League, the Premier League, Serie A and the Six Nations on its website, with more than 12 screens, 400 square metres and 14 taps; it adds that the daily schedule “changes with demand”, so check your match on WhatsApp. Sherlock Holmes shows football, Formula 1 and tennis, and Calanmor football, baseball and basketball, according to Calanmor.
Camden Lock, Calle Convalecientes 4, opens at 5pm on weekdays and 3.30pm at weekends, and The Garrison Tavern at 7pm Monday to Thursday, both according to directories, so a weekday 6.45pm Champions League game is too early for The Garrison.
Pint or caña, and what it costs
A caña is a small draught beer, served in a short glass. In the old town, a pint of Águila lager costs 5 euros at Morrissey’s and a Cruzcampo 5 at Sherlock Holmes; Guinness costs 6.50 at both and 8 at Calanmor, whose menu does not state the measure.
Out on the Pedregalejo seafront, Vox Sports Bar, Paseo Marítimo El Pedregal 70, charges 2.50 euros for a caña and 3.80 for a pint. Its old-town branch on Calle Calderería closed in early 2025, so older listings that send you there are out of date; Pedregalejo is reached by EMT bus, as set out in getting around Malaga.

Add an hour to the UK kick-off time, then pick the pub that is already open.
