Description of Fallas de Dénia

Experience the magic of Las Fallas 2026 in Dénia — one of the most spectacular traditional festivals in the Valencia region, Spain.

From 19 January to 19 March 2026, the city transforms into an open-air gallery as gigantic artistic monuments — the famous fallas — rise across the streets. Expect daily fireworks, lively parades, music, and unforgettable street celebrations that bring the whole city to life.

The grand highlight takes place from 17–19 March, featuring thunderous mascletà firework shows and culminating on 19 March with the legendary Cremà, when all monuments are set ablaze in a breathtaking finale.

This is one of the biggest and most authentic traditional festivals in the Valencia region — an absolute must-see if you’re visiting Dénia in spring.
