Fallas 2026 Candidates Wrap 24-Hour Ferry Convivencia as Jury Prepares Final Thirteen

The ferry-based convivencia gives the jury extended face-to-face time to evaluate the 73 aspirants before finalizing the thirteen nominees at Roig Arena.

Overview

  • Seventy-three candidates completed an intensive itinerary aboard a Trasmed ferry featuring a gala dinner, onboard activities, and a brief morning visit to Palma with a reception by mayor Jaime Martínez Llabrés and a passejà.
  • Fallera Mayor Berta Peiró and the 2025 court took part in the institutional program and presided over the gala on board.
  • The jury used the prolonged onboard interaction to observe, question, and interview the candidates ahead of post-trip meetings in València.
  • Organizers say the panel must reach Roig Arena later this week with a closed list of thirteen finalists.
  • This edition kept the mecenazgo deal with the ferry operator and introduced tweaks such as children visiting the ship without leaving port and candidates replacing company-logo ribbons with identification numbers.
