Nice pics and video :-D
This year will be my fifth Fallas. Ashamed to say, have never been able to get up early enough to catch a street ‘desperta’. Have only ever heard them from my bed LOL. Going to make the effort this year though!
Question:Can any tourist join in? It’s got to be done!

Thank you Jules for the nice comment.

Got bad news for you though since the Despertà already happened this year. It’s always on the last Sunday in February. You have to be in one of the Fallas groups in order to get those firecrackers. But you can just show up and walk along with them.

Happy Fallas!
