Fireworks to end all fireworks (Nit de Foc) Valencia, Spain

We’ve all seen fireworks.  July 4th comes to mind first.  Then, there’s festivals, sports events and some backyard shenanigans.  In Valencia during Las Fallas, there are fireworks too.  But, there’s one night in particular, the Nit de Foc (the Night of Fire), where fireworks is taken to an absolute extreme.  They last for a little over 20 minutes, but they are just spectacular.

It’s always great to see some new things in the sky too.  This time it was a type of jellyfish/alien that scooted up in the sky and slowly darted up and down before dissolving.  Then, there was the finale.  I’m going to attempt to attach the last 30 seconds via Flickr, but it’s not an understatement to stay that night turned to day.  It took fireworks to a whole new level.  The fireworks were white but underneath them, where all the launchers were, it was a fiery red – just like a huge combustion of fire balls.  It seemed as if, all at once, one of the pyrotechnicians decided to dump everything he had left just to see what would happen.  Enjoy and let me know if you want to see the crazy jellyfish.

  1. I´d second that. I´ve seen fireworks in London, Edinburgh, Hong Kong and Barcelona- Valencia tops the lot. Plus it isn´t New Year and freezing cold.

    The whole town is transformed for the festival. A must if you like spectaculars- one to avoid if you don´t like noise!
