About
La Crida is the official start of Fallas. From the top of the Torres de Serranos, the Fallera Mayor of Valencia and the Child Fallera Mayor open the festival in front of a huge crowd. The towers glow, the whole plaza sings the city anthem, and fireworks close it out. It is loud and packed, and it suits kids who like a big night out.
