Welcome to Christmas in Valencia!
Here in Valencia, the sun tends to shine on Christmas Day and there's lots of fun to be had as normal. The Spanish tend to celebrate Christmas Eve with family get togethers, dinners and making lots of noise. Christmas day has traditionally been less boisterous with the main present giving day being Los Reyes Magos (The three wise/magic kings) on 6th January. Many towns and villages have processions on the evening of 6th January for Los Reyes Magos - when the three kings arrive at their town. The processions tend to be fairly spectacular and, fairly typically for Spain, notoriously late.
These days, there tends to be present giving on Christmas Day as well as on Los Reyes Magos - so be prepared!
In this section we hope to bring you the best links and information to help you get the most of Christmas in Valencia whether you live here or just passing through.
Merry Christmas!
