Overview

• The Generalitat launched a 9 d’Octubre campaign built around the regional hymn using the slogan “Vixca, vixca, vixca,” a non‑normative form not recognized by the AVL, which maintains “visca.”
• President Carlos Mazón called the wording a historical nod and confirmed he will take part in the Processó Cívica, with the official awards set at the Palau de la Generalitat and a focus on recognizing DANA responders.
• Authorities detailed an enlarged security plan for Valencia that tops 2,000 personnel, including about 1,800 National Police and 500 local resources, after officials described the social climate as “convulso.”
• Valencia’s program features a medieval market from October 4, a giants-and-bigheads parade, the civic procession with the Senyera and a post‑procession mascletà by Pirotecnia Tamarit, plus a fireworks display from the Monteolivete bridge at 23:59 on October 8.
• Municipalities across the region published full schedules; Torrent will debut the new geganta Amparín Miquel, Sagunt adds a multi‑day medieval market and honors, and Ontinyent and Xàtiva roll out concerts, dances and institutional acts, with the Generalitat also planning a 200‑drone show at the City of Arts and Sciences.
