Olive country life magazine has been an essential advertising tool for my business, reaching out far and wide to the English speaking community. The magazine is developing every month and has quickly established itself in the heart of free press English reading, in this part of Andalucia.... More

About Us

Who are we?
Our team is a composed of a number of people who are committed to making this website and its companion magazine the most informed about visiting, working and living in the Olive Country provinces of Córdoba, Granada and Jaén in central Andalucía, Spain.

By providing this site since October 2007 and the magazine from August 2008, we have been made very aware from the feedback from our browsers and readership of the need for a central community and business meeting point that is accessible to all.

To accommodate this need, the new Olive Country Conexiónes Centre, opened in April 2009, at Avenida Iberoamérica 48, 23680 Alcalá La Real, Jaén. The centre is easily accessed from the N-432, just opposite Mercadona for anyone travelling from the Córdoba or Granada provinces.

Olive Country Life

Olive Country Life S.L.

A Spanish company formed by the founders of the Alcalá Life website to enable them to legitimately sell advertising space in a magazine which they initially called Alcalá Life. This name was changed in January 2009 to Olive Country Life (retaining the Alcalá Life title as an integrated part of the magazine).

The reason for the change of name was that a large proportion of the advertisers in the surrounding towns and villages felt that the magazine was meant for only Alcalá residents and as such were reluctant to advertise in the magazine.

The magazine is a FREE publication paid for by the advertising and is distributed throughout the Central Andalucian area. Currently the distribution is 5,000 magazines a month but the team is working on

increasing that rapidly.

Announcement

The Drama Queens Amateur Dramatic Group sadly announces that the forthcoming show “Viva la Musica”, at the Teatro Martinez Montanes in Alcala La Real on June 20th has had to be cancelled.

Due to circumstances which were not in our control and with a number of setbacks and health problems amongst the group, missed rehearsals etc., we feel that the show content is just not ready yet, for a live performance at this time.

We apologise to all our friends, supporters and more especially to those involved in the performance that this decision has had to be made but we will make a further announcement as soon as possible.

Once again, we would like to thank everyone, for their support of the Anglo-Spanish performance group.
