Fallas return to Calp after two years of hiatus due to the pandemic

10 March 2022 - 12: 45

La Falla del Calp Vell, the only Fallera entity in the municipality, is already preparing the acts of the Josephine festivities after the two-year break as a result of the pandemic. This entity founded in 1983 and currently chaired by Felipe Pino has made an enormous effort to organize the Fallas festival in the town given the economic difficulties and the decline in members of the Fallas. This year the Fallas monument will be burned, which should have been planted in 2020 and which was never set up due to the pandemic and the subsequent confinement declared days before the Fallas festivities.
