What is Las
Fallas?
Las Fallas are Valencia's most universal
festival, declared Intangible Cultural
Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.Its name
refers to the spectacular sculptural
monuments made of wood and papier
mâché that are placed in the city’s streets
and squares to be admired before they
succumb to the flames.
When?
The festive events begin on the last Sunday in
February with the Crida, in which the falleras
mayores spur people on to have fun at the
Fallas. Then, from March 1st onwards, the
Mascletà is fired daily in the City Hall square.
The main dates, though, are from March 15th to
19th, when the plantà begins and the cremà
(burning) of the monuments happens.
