The Bonfires of San Juan (Hogueras de San Juan or Fogueres de Sant Joan) are a tradition that has been celebrated in Alicante since 1928. They are Alicante’s main festivities and have been declared of International Tourist Interest. The main objective is to remember the birth of John the Baptist, who is the patron saint of Alicante.

The bonfires are lit on the eve of Saint John, June 23rd, and they burn all night long until dawn. The fire is thought to protect Alicante from evil spirits and witches who may attempt to enter the city during this time. Nowadays, when these dates arrive, the bonfires are lit on every street corner and in every beach in Alicante’s city and the festivity is celebrated with music, shows and fireworks.

When are the Bonfires of San Juan?

The bonfires are lit on the eve of Midsummer’s Eve, 23 June each year, at midnight and burn until dawn. However, the Midsummer’s Eve festivities last for more than a week, from 20 to 29 June. On the 20th “La Plantá” (set) of the bonfires takes place, from the 21st to the evening of the 23rd there are several parades and the Offering of Flowers to the Virgen del Remedio, on the night of the 23rd to the 24th “La Cremá” (the burning of the bonfires) takes place and from the 25th to the 29th fireworks are set off.

How to get to the Bonfires of San Juan in Alicante?

As we mentioned before, this festival is celebrated throughout the province, although in some places it is celebrated in a special way, such as in Postiguet Beach. In any case, with MiTaxi you can go quickly and comfortably to any beach of Alicante to celebrate the Bonfires of San Juan. If you are planning to go and see them, make sure you plan ahead and arrive early.

What is burnt in the Bonfires of San Juan?

Bonfires (Hogueras or Fogueres) are a monument of wood, cardboard, paper and cork made up of puppets. The themes of the bonfire do not have a specific concept, but usually represent a criticism of society.

Before the burning, there is an exhibition with representative figures of the bonfires called “ninots” (dolls), and through a popular vote one is chosen to be “pardoned”. The winner (Ninot Indultat) becomes part of the Hogueras museum.

What is done on this festivity

The Bonfires of San Juan are a very important part of the culture and tradition of Alicante. They are lit to celebrate the day of San Juan and to commemorate his birth. As the bonfires burn on the night of 23 June, people enjoy the spectacle and cope with the intense heat with the help of the firemen, who throw water on those present to cool them down in what is known as the “banyá”. On the other hand, there is a ritual that consists of jumping over the bonfires at least three times as a way of eliminating bad fortune. During these festivities, people gather around the fires to eat and drink wine or beer and then dance around the flames until dawn.

What to do at the Moors and Christians Festival in Alcoy?

During these festivities, there is a wide range of activities to enjoy and experience this historic celebration. From witnessing the impressive parades to immersing yourself in the atmosphere of the festivities with recreations of epic battles between Moors and Christians. Additionally, you can explore the food and craft stalls that line the streets of Alcoy. Below, we highlight the key aspects of these festivities:

Day of Glory

The Day of Glory marks the triumphant beginning of the festivities. On Easter Sunday, a representative from each “filà” (festive group) parades through the main streets of the city to the rhythm of pasodobles, announcing the festive awakening with joy and fervor. This colorful parade kicks off a series of celebrations that enrich the life of Alcoy.

Subsequently, on the second Sunday, the infant Gloria is celebrated, where the same parade takes place but with children. From this day until the Musician’s day, the nights are illuminated with the “filaetes,” parades where festeros squads parade through the streets dressed in festive attire and accompanied by music.

Day of the Musicians

The Day of the Musicians on April 19th marks the eve of the three great days of celebration, beginning with an exciting tribute to the music bands, a fundamental part of the celebrations in Alcoy.

The program for the Day of the Musicians includes a parade of the Music Bands at 7:30 pm, starting from the avenue of País Valencià to the Plaça d’Espanya. At 9:00 pm in the Plaça d’Espanya, the Hymn of the Festival is played jointly by all participating bands, thus marking the highlight of the day.

Later, it is time to enjoy the typical dinner, the nit de l’olla, which consists of tasting a hearty stew: the olleta alcoyana, made with beans.

Day of the Entries

The Day of the Entries kicks off the festivities with a vibrant atmosphere in Alcoy on April 20th. From the early hours of the day, Plaça d’Espanya is filled with anticipation, with festeros full of energy and resplendent costumes for the Diana.

During the Christian Entry, the spectacle is impressive: visitors can enjoy the parade of the Captain, the squads, and the banners, in a display of music and color that recalls the defense of the city against Moorish attacks. After a brief pause, the Moorish Entry arrives, where fantasy and splendor intertwine in an oriental atmosphere full of dancers and African warriors, under a shower of confetti from the balconies.

Day of San Jorge

San Jorge Day in Alcoy (April 21st), the second day of the festivities, is dedicated to the Patron Saint San Jorge, embodied by the figure of a child, who is the undisputed protagonist of the Festival and is loved and admired by all. In the early morning, the second Diana takes place, in which the participants are children, thus creating a more familiar and jovial atmosphere.

At 11:00 am, there is a procession with the relic of San Jorge, from the church consecrated to this saint to that of Santa María. This event is one of the most emotional moments of the festivities, especially when white and red rose petals are thrown in the street San Lorenzo as Sant Jordiet passes, creating a magical atmosphere. The procession concludes with a mass where the Missa a Sant Jordi by Amando Blanquer is performed.

In the afternoon, at 6:00 pm, there is an evening Diana, called dels caballets, followed by the General Procession at 7:30 pm. In this procession, a meticulous order is followed, including the participation of different groups, from filàs to authorities, and culminating with the equestrian figure of San Jorge. The route, full of solemnity and majesty, ends at the temple of San Jorge, where an emotional act takes place. At the end of the procession, around 9:30 pm, the sky is lit up with a spectacular fireworks display from the Pont de Sant Jordi. The night concludes with the retreta, an informal parade where festeros parade on floats, throwing objects and small gifts to the public, in a atmosphere of celebration and joy.

Day of the Alardo

On the third and final day of the festivities (April 22nd), Alcoy is immersed in an intense day of action and fervor during the Day of the Alardo. The city witnesses a symbolic and thunderous struggle between Moors and Christians, where gunpowder and the roar of muskets fill the air. The dialectical struggle through Embassies and the non-bloody struggle with the thunderous musket immerse the city in a frenzy of emotions. Both sides take turns in the capture and reconquest of the castle, while Alcoy is impregnated with the smoke of gunpowder and the characteristic smell of musket shots.

The day culminates with the appearance of Sant Jordiet on horseback on the battlements of the Castle, marking the emotional end of the Festival Trilogy in honor of the city’s Patron Saint.

Gastronomy

Among the typical dishes of the festivities, highlights include “l’olleta de Músic,” a traditional stew, and the sweets known as “Moros”. As for beverages, coffee liqueur is a popular choice, either on its own or mixed. Combining it with cola results in the “plis-play,” while mixing it with lemon granita creates the refreshing “mentira.” Additionally, there’s herbero, a liqueur made with sweet anise and macerated herbs from the Sierra Mariola, as well as “Biri biri,” a liquor based on gin and orange.

La Crida of the Fallas of Valencia is the act that starts the Fallas festival. This event takes place on Sunday 3 March at 19:00, in the Torres de Serranos. During the Crida, the mayor or mayoress, the Fallera Mayor of Valencia and the Fallera Mayor Infantil give a speech to the whole city, inviting the citizens to participate in the festival.

The intensity gradually increases until it reaches the “earthquake”, a deafening explosion at the end. Each mascletà has a unique musical composition created by the noises of the gunpowder cannons, and the firecrackers hang from ropes to create a more colourful scene.

La Plantà

La Plantà of the Fallas is one of the most exciting moments of the festival. If you are in Valencia on the night of 15th March, you can witness the planting of all the fallas in the city. During this night, the fallas artists work hard to assemble the monumental papier-mâché structures, while the falleros from each of the fallas remain there cheering and helping. The Plantà marks the official start of the Fallas and is a magical and unforgettable night for Valencians and tourists visiting the city.

Fireworks display

The fireworks display is an impressive pyrotechnic spectacle that takes place every night (from the 15th to the 19th of March) in different parts of the city. Many Fallas commissions have their own firework display, but the official one is the largest and takes place next to the Palau de les Arts. Each firework display lasts about 20 minutes and features a variety of pyrotechnic effects, music and colours that make it a truly spectacular event.

Ofrenda de Flores

A parade takes place in the Plaza de la Virgen and each fallera commission parades in traditional costumes and a brass band. The falleras carry a bouquet of flowers to form the Virgin’s mantle and tapestry. The Junta Central Fallera determines the colour of the bouquet to make a perfect floral design.

Despertà

The despertà is a Fallas tradition that consists of throwing firecrackers and playing music at 8 am every day of the Fallas week. The aim is for people to wake up early and enjoy the festivities, strolling through the streets to see the monuments and take part in the events organised by the Fallas commissions.

Nit del Foc

On the night of the 18th March, the Nit del Foc, you can enjoy the biggest and most spectacular fireworks display of the festivities.

It is a family show where various Fallas commissions dress up in costumes, perform skits on current affairs and parade with floats.

La Cabalgata del Fuego is the main parade of the festivities. It takes place on 19 March at 19:00 and is a fireworks display that announces that all the fallas will be burnt that night. The parade includes animals such as dragons and snakes that throw fire, as well as stilt walkers and demons with pyrotechnic devices.

La Cremá

On the night of 19 March, this is the final celebration of the Fallas of Valencia. All the structures built by the falleros are burnt on this night. During La Cremà, the falleros remove the fences that surround the monument, they surround it with an incendiary traca, make holes in it, and spray it with gasoline. Before burning the falla, a firework display is launched. Then, the Fallera Mayor lights the fuse of the traca from a distance and the crowd applauds when the falla falls into the fire.

In addition, during these festivities you can also enjoy other activities such as illuminated street contests, the Fallas Museum, markets, paella contests and street parties.
