Fallas Flower Offering

The Fallas flower offering involves members of a vast number of Fallas committees or guilds. Magnificently dressed in traditional costumes, they form a large procession that lasts for hours during the two days. A final act sees an offering to Fallas patron Saint Joseph during the morning of March 19 at the Pont de Sant Josep, the bridge crossing the Turia.

The youngest babies held on a parent’s arms, elderly and frail, adults and children of all ages participate until very late. They offer beautiful flowers to Our Lady of the Forsaken, the city patron, thus creating an imposing sight on Plaza de la Virgen.

The day closes with a pyrotechnic firework display in the Turia Garden, near the Palau de les Arts as late as 1am.
