Fallas Festival
The Fallas Festival is an annual celebration held in Valencia, Spain, typically from March 1 to March 19. It honors Saint Joseph, the patron saint of carpenters, and features the creation and burning of large, intricate sculptures called fallas. These sculptures are made of wood and papier-mâché, often depicting satirical scenes or characters.
The festival culminates on March 19, when the fallas are set ablaze in a spectacular display of fireworks and flames. The event attracts thousands of visitors and includes parades, traditional music, and the wearing of regional costumes, making it a vibrant cultural experience for both locals and tourists.
