Why is there no macromascletà this Saturday in Benicalap and when is it celebrated?

[Por qué no hay este sábado macromascletà en Benicalap y cuándo se celebra]

This event has been held for years by the Benicalap Gunpowder Friends Federation (Benifap)

Failures are just around the corner. With the arrival of the Crida next Sunday, February 26, the most important month for Valencians will kick off. However, there was a first act scheduled for this Saturday the 25th at 9:00 p.m. on Avenida del Levante Unión Deportiva. This is the Benicalap macromascletà that the Benicalap Gunpowder Friends Federation (Benifap) has been organizing for years.

Finally it has had to be postponed. The reasons are included in the statement released by Benifap. He explains that the Valencia City Council has only given permission to hold a part of the event, but not all that the federation had proposed.

From the association they have assured that everything possible has been done so that the event is held on the scheduled date, but it has not been viable once the allegations presented before the Valencian Consistory have been dismissed. So, after meeting on several occasions, from Benifap it has been decided to postpone the event until it could be held in full.

New date

Despite the fact that nothing has been confirmed at the moment, if we look at what happened in previous years, it is most likely that this macromascletà will be held in the month of June, specifically on Saint John's Day. This was already done in 2022. So everything indicates that Valencians will have to wait several months to enjoy this fireworks show in the Benicalap neighborhood.
