Municipal programs confirm access controls, security deployments, inclusion measures for mass events from Dec. 31 to Jan. 5.

Overview

  • Valencia expands children’s campanadas to 10:30–13:00 with a live set by Gisela, then runs a controlled night event opening at 22:00 via five access points with 10,000 reusable cups, a DJ lineup of Boccachico, Pepino Marino and Ele DJ, and a scheduled close at 01:45.
  • Pirotecnia Vulcano’s nine‑minute “Resplandor” show at the City of Arts and Sciences will pair with a 90‑second discharge from the City Hall terrace, using GPS‑coordinated, fully digital firing with installation work starting Dec. 30.
  • Valencia’s Paje Real and Buzón Real visits continue through Jan. 5 across neighborhoods, with the Pinedo stop moved to the afternoon of Jan. 4 following a safety alert.
  • Plasencia sets a noise‑free stretch and reserved areas for reduced mobility in its Jan. 5 Cabalgata, while Cáceres readies 14 floats, over 800 participants, more than 4,000 kilos of candy and a multi‑agency safety and medical operation.
