History of Starlite
In 1983, prince Alfonso von Hohenlohe, singer Julio Iglesias and tenor Plácido Domingo organized a musical event with a recital starred by the tenor in the Nagüeles quarry of Marbella, using the space as a natural auditorium for its excellent acoustic qualities and stunning natural environment. That would be the historical precedent and precursor of the Starlite Festival, that finally took shape thirty years later, in 2012.
This first edition attracted 40,000 concert goers for a programme of artists including: George Benson, Roger Hodgson, Armando Manzanero, Tony Bennett, Christopher Cross, Hugh Laurie, Paul Anka, Miguel Bosé, Rosario Flores and Lolita Flores with Antonio Carmona, Simple Minds, Raphael, Julio Iglesias, and Estopa.
Starlite Gala
In addition, the Starlite Gala takes place every year. Hand in hand with its hosts, Antonio Banderas and Sandra GarcÃÂa-SanJuán, it has become the charity event par excellence, raising money for the Starlite Foundation, an international charity platform which aims to improve the education, health and living conditions of families and children in need. It supports several organizations and causes led by personalities whose determination, dedication and personal involvement are an inspiration for many of us.
They use their fame, influence and power over the media to actively help, raising their voices for those in need who are not heard. These stars are a light that guides many of us to follow their example to change thousands of lives and make this world a better place.
The Starlite Gala began in 2010 with the aim of raising funds for various projects and foundation.
From its first edition, the Starlite Gala has been supported by recognized national and international personalities. It has also awarded the philanthropic causes of personalities such us Carlos Slim, Valeria Mazza, Enrique Ponce, Mia Farrow, Daryl Hannah, Laura Pausini, Eugenia MartÃÂnez de Irujo, Cayetano Rivera, Deepak Chopra, Alejandro Sanz y Miguel Bosé among others.
