The “Castell de l’Olla” floods Altea with music and colour

At midnight on Saturday 10 August, Altea becomes a Mediterranean centre of culture. Thousands of people are expected to gather on the beach or take to their boats to watch the "Castell de L'Olla", a fascinating musical firework display.

This is a unique chance to explore this little Costa Blanca paradise and wander around the charming streets in the old quarter, admire the eight kilometres of beaches and unique coves, plus enjoy some delicious local food, such as the famous rice dishes and locally caught fish.

With 27 years of tradition, the firework display combines different art forms and has earned itself a great reputation with local residents and visitors to the Region of Valencia.

By introducing new elements such as dance, the show has become even more attractive, making the beach where "Castell de L'Olla" is held into an idyllic location that captivates everyone with a perfect blend of music, dance and fireworks.

Fallas in Benidorm

In Benidorm we are in Fiesta; the light, color and fire ... above all the fire,will floods the streets  of our town for a few days. From this hospitable town we invite you to fully live and experience the Fallas, undoubtedly our most internationally known festival.

For five days the castles, monuments and “mascletaes” become the protagonists of Benidorm, where the smell of gunpowder is interspersed with the smell of flowers and the music of the bands with the sound of masclets. A transformation that occurs as a prelude to spring, and on March 19, everything ends and everything begins; with the last of the ashes people start to dream of Fallas again for  the following year.

This excellent Valencian fiesta  takes place in Benidorm from the 14th to March 19th, the festivity of San José.

There are three Fallas Commissions: Falla “Centro”, Falla “Rincón” and Falla “Els Tolls”, which are responsible for creating their Fallas constructions in their respective districts and organise the fiesta. Parades, and flower offering are the most significant events, culminating in the feast day (the 19th) with the "cremá" (burning of the fallas).

The six children’s and adults versions of monuments are burned at different times for people who want to  view all the burnings

The adults version are burned at 00:00h (Falla "Rincón"), 00:30h (Falla "Centro") and 01:00h (Falla "Els Tolls").
