The spirit of Fallas was felt strongly on 10 March 2025, around the Student Recreation Centre. At 2 pm, a spectacular mascletà (a traditional Valencian firecracker show) was held, gathering dozens of students and university community members. The thunderous sound of fireworks filled the air, marking the beginning of a day full of tradition.

After the pyrotechnic display, the university’s Fallas Queens paraded through the campus, accompanied by the rector’s management team, including several vice-rectors, as well as representatives of the Student Council. The parade, which passed through the Palm Walk and the Central Plaza, delighted attendees with traditional music and the vibrant spirit of Fallas.

This event, organised in collaboration with the university’s Fallas community, reaffirmed the institution’s commitment to Valencian culture and traditions.
