Municipal cleaning services left the city ready shortly after the fire burnt the monuments
'Nit de la Cremà' says goodbye to Benidorm Fallas until next year
Last night the fire burned, as tradition dictates, the Fallas monuments of Benidorm on a night marked by the absence of incidents. The commissions of Els Tolls, Rincón de Loix and Benidorm Centro, coordinated by the Local Fallera Board, have filled the streets of the city throughout the week with music, colour and the unmistakable aroma of gunpowder, typical of these Josephine festivities.
The mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, and the Fiestas councillor, Mariló Cebreros, together with members of the government team, accompanied the president of the Local Fallera Board, Esther García, and the 'falleras' of the three commissions of the city, in a 'Nit de la Cremà' that, in the case of children's fallas, began at 10:30 p.m. in Rincón and 11:00 p.m. in Benidorm Centro and Els Tolls.
At 11:30 p.m. it was the turn of the great monuments and the first to burn was the Rincón de Loix Falla, at midnight it was the Benidorm Centro Falla's turn and, at 12:30 a.m., Els Tolls. All the 'cremàs' were followed by hundreds of tourists and residents who did not want to miss the occasion.
The security devices of the Local Police, Civil Protection, the Red Cross and firefighters were attentive at all times to the normal development of the events and after the fire burned them it was the turn of the cleaning services that in record time left the city ready for a new work day.
