"Mascletà" - Incredibly noisy fireworks let off during the daytime to make as much noise as possible. Pure bliss to a firework fan like myself. The Mascletà held each day at 2pm in the town hall square is something that cannot be written about - you simply have to experience it for yourself!

"Ninot" - A small part of a Fallas sculpture - typically a human figure of breathtaking detail and craftsmanship.

"Plantà" - The installation or "planting" of the Fallas sculptures.
