Behind the Scenes of Las Fallas: Art, Culture & Hands-On Workshop
Overview
Las Fallas is more than a festival — it's a living tradition woven into Valencia’s soul. While most visitors only see fireworks and giant sculptures in March, few discover where the magic truly begins: inside the artists’ workshops, where creativity and culture thrive year-round.
This hands-on experience takes you behind the scenes with the artisans who make it all happen. Start at the Museum of the Guild of Fallas Artists, nestled in the neighborhood where it all began. Learn how this celebration evolved from a local ritual to a UNESCO-recognized treasure.
Then, get creative in a workshop led by a real Fallas artist. Shape your own ninot — one of the whimsical festival figures — and try painting and modeling techniques used in the monuments.
Wrap up with a sweet local treat: refreshing horchata and fartons, just like the locals.
Whether you’re a couple, family, or solo traveler, this is a unique way to connect with Valencia’s heart — while supporting its living artistic heritage.
