New Year's Eve Party 2025

Description

Ring in the New Year with chimes, live music, and a sky full of fireworks.
Valencia bids farewell to 2025 in the best way it knows how, bringing everyone together in two very special places in the city: the Plaza del Ayuntamiento (City Hall Square) and the City of Arts and Sciences.

From early morning until well into the night, the city will be filled with music, fireworks, and a few surprises to help you start 2026 off on the right foot.

CHILDREN'S CHEERE AT THE PLAZA DEL AYUNTAMIENTO (CITY HALL SQUARE)

Children's Chimes — From 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Yes, the festivities begin early in the morning with a party designed especially for the youngest members of the family, who will be the first to welcome 2026. What a privilege, right? Throughout the morning, the square will be filled with children's entertainment, circus performances, and areas for photo booths, face painting, and balloon twisting.

At midnight, the countdown will begin, confetti will rain down, and the square will transform into a mini New Year's Eve celebration so everyone can experience the magic of ringing in the new year.

Gisela will provide live entertainment, lending her voice and music to one of the most special moments of the day and making the celebration an unforgettable experience.

The big New Year's Eve party — From 10:30 p.m. to 1:45 a.m.
The Town Hall Square will once again be the meeting point to say goodbye to the year. It will close to the public at 8:30 p.m., and access will open at 10:00 p.m. through five designated entry points: Marqués de Sotelo, Passeig de Russafa, Correos, Barcas, and María Cristina.

At these access points, 10,000 reusable cups will be distributed to prevent glass containers from entering the venue and to enhance security during the celebration.

The Valencian DJ Boccachico will kick off the night with a high-energy set from the balcony of Valencia City Hall.

And when the clock strikes 11:59 p.m., the best moment arrives: the chimes!

Bring your grapes, don't choke… and make that wish you've been thinking about for days.

Twelve bites later, Valencia welcomes 2026 with toasts, hugs, and an incredible atmosphere.

And as soon as the chimes finish, the show begins! A spectacular fireworks display will be launched in the square by Pirotecnia Vulcano, so get ready for a perfectly synchronized explosion of color.

At midnight, Pepino Marino, the Madrid-based DJ known for his fresh and fun style, will take over, providing the soundtrack to the first moments of 2026 with a special set full of festive tracks.

Finally, DJ Ele will be in charge of providing the musical finale to the night, bringing energy and dynamism with a carefully curated mix of genres like pop and house. More than 10,000 LED light sticks will help create a festive atmosphere throughout the square.

And yes, the music continues until 1:45 a.m.

FIREWORKS AT THE CITY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES

Valencia unveils a new meeting point to celebrate New Year's Eve.

The event will take place, of course, at the City of Arts and Sciences and its surroundings. From here, a spectacular fireworks display by Pirotecnia Vulcano will be launched.

The night begins at the Monteolivete Bridge, where the quarter-hour chimes and the stroke of midnight will be accompanied by pyrotechnic displays.

And the festivities continue with "Resplandor" (Radiance), a grand display that lasts nine intense minutes.

This display will use over 1,770 kilos of pyrotechnic material, 3,556 firing sequences, and 40 different types of effects, although the most spectacular moment will come in the final minute, when 2,590 explosions and 600 kilos of gunpowder will resound.

The entire display will be meticulously choreographed, coordinated by GPS, and built on eight 15-meter-high platforms, which will allow for the creation of three-dimensional landscapes and a pyrotechnic display of great visual impact.
