Second Day of Flower Offering. The flower offering to the representation of the Virgin of the 2025 Valencia Fallas is, as every year, one of the most striking events of the festival. 'Ofrena de flors a la Mare de Déu' is the original name in valencian. During the days of March 17th and 18th, the […]
On the last day of the Fallas, before the monuments are burned, there's one last parade to celebrate: the 'Cavalcada del Foc' or Fire Parade. The Fire Parade is essentially a 'Correfocs' or Fire Run, a procession where 'dimonis' or demons shoot sparks, accompanied by mythological figures, and playfully frighten attendees. This parade celebrates the […]
Infant march with firecrackers in the early morning. Hence the name 'despertà', which means wake-up call in valencian. It starts at the Church of Sant Joan del Hospital and ends in the Town Hall Square with a grand finale 'earthquake' —a large firecracker display—.
La 'despertà' is a route where people are awakened early by setting off firecrackers, hence the name, 'despertar' - to wake up. It begins shortly after the children's event and ends in the Town Hall Square with a large 'terratrèmol' or pyrotechnic earthquake, by Mediterráneo Pyrothecnics.

Music bands from the city, other municipalities and those associated with the Fallas parade from Tetuan Square (11:30h) to Town Hall Square (12h).
The Crida (Valencian word for ‘call’) always takes place on the last Sunday of February. The Falleras Mayores of Valencia announce the beginning of the Fallas calendar. There are fireworks and visual effects during and after the event.
The 'Cavalcada del Ninot', Ninot Parade, is a procession where members of fallas commissions dress up and parody current topics, faithful to the satirical and critical spirit of the fallas, with a lot of humor. The figures or 'ninots', in general, will not be placed in the fallas or are those in the Ninot Exhibition, […]
