Día de la Comunitat Valenciana

Valencian Community Day is an official public holiday across the Autonomous Community of Valencia, and its traditions reach back to the 14th century. In the heart of Valencia city, a traditional procession winds through the streets, firecrackers go off with a thunderous roar, and concerts and other events take place. On the evening before the holiday, many bars and clubs stay open with the same hours they keep on a Saturday night.
