Granada, like Seville, is in the autonomous region of Andalusia in Spain. A smallish city by comparison with some of the more famous Spanish destinations, it's within easy reach of the Mediterranean, while at the same time being close to the awe-inspiring Sierra Nevada mountains, site of world championship ski events. It offers a chance to visit one of the most important citadels in Islamic history, the famed Alhambra. Religion permeates the architecture and culture of Granada, so when you buy or sell Granada event tickets on StubHub, you're in for a serene, contemplative trip, which will reward your soul as much as satisfy your travel desires.

The sporting life of Granada

Perhaps because of this pace of life, the locals of Granada have a more relaxed approach to sport than their counterparts in the bigger centres of Spain, but their team nonetheless plays in the Spanish premier league – and it has extremely loyal supporters. So watching a Granada CF match is still a good way of absorbing some of the sporting flavour of the city. Another good option is to get some Granada event tickets on StubHub and take yourself off to an amateur basketball game at LEB Oro. For an open-air colosseum performance, the Plaza de Toros de Granada will provide an evening out that will long stay in your memories of Spain.

Granada rewards a deeper look

When you're buying Granada event tickets, make sure to include Palacio de los Deportes de Granada on your itinerary. It's long been the place to go for showstoppers like Cirque de Soleil. Your primary venue for sporting events and any large outdoor concerts that the city puts on is Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes. Smaller theatres and cafes have always been the places to find local musicians, poets and amateur dramatists, so once you've visited the main venues, make sure to take a stroll off the beaten track. It will reward you with a glimpse of small-city Spanish life that you will treasure as much as the most impressive theatre production or sporting spectacle. However, it's the religious heritage that is the heart and soul of the city, and your days are most likely to be taken up visiting its age-old churches, chapels and intricately crafted cathedrals.

Travel along the Spanish coast

Granada is pretty near the southern coast of Spain, where you'll find the beautiful resorts of Marbella and Malaga, both celebrated in their own right as places to go for sun, sand and Spanish hospitality. The city of Murcia lies inland to the east and is also within easy reach. You can book tickets for events in these cities just as easily on StubHub.
