Valencia Festival in March.
At the Mediterranean coast, Valencia city, celebrates each year the final days of the winter and the arrival of spring with spectacular fires and pyrotechnics. Is worthwhile hiring a car at Valencia airport from March 15 to 19 Rent spain help you to discover the feast of Saint Joseph. Valencia is given over to a carnival of fireworks, bonfires, fiesta and a healthy dose of satire known as Las Fallas, the fires.
Displayed on every corner all over the city are colourful ninots, giant papier-mâché figures often 20 feet tall or even more that have been paraded through the streets and then placed in fantasy groups to tower over excited spectators. They use to satirises a political figure, TV or sports idols.
La Mascletá takes place every day at 2pm firecrackers rip through the Plaza del Ayuntamiento. This concert of gunpowder is very popular .
The Ofrenda de Flores a la Virgen de los Desamparados, is another important event as a beautiful ceremony. Every March 17 and 18, that honours Valencia’s patron Virgin. Losts of Falleras and Falleros arrive to the city from every town, wearing traditional costumes and dancing to their neighbourhood or village bands as they wend their way to the Plaza de la Virgen to offer bouquets to the giant image of the Virgin.
Nowadays, celebrations draw to an end with a fabulous firework display in the Paseo de la Alameda, called the Nit del Foc (literally “The Night of Fire”), on March 18. All Fallas burn all over the city the following night (including the winner of the competition) in a tremendous spectacle of fire and joy. Valencia is at that moment like Nero´s Rome, a city in flames. That’s why Valencians call this the best firework fiesta in the world! Don´t miss it!
