Xàbia is filled with color and tradition: these are the five streets of the historic center that are decorated by Fogueres

The festive atmosphere is already palpable in the streets of Xàbia's historic center, where residents have been working for months to transform their corners into scenes filled with creativity, color, and tradition. As every year, several streets have joined in the festive spirit, decorating with care and passion to welcome the town's important days and, if possible, win the award for best decorated street.

Vandalism

This effort, the fruit of neighborhood unity, has become a symbol of local identity. Each street reflects the collective effort, shared joy, and commitment to the festivities. However, it wasn't all celebration: on the first day of installation, acts of vandalism marred the excitement. On Sant Pere Màrtir Street, some of the side decorations were torn off, causing sadness and helplessness among the residents.

Despite this, the festive spirit remains strong and visible. Although vandalism has marred the efforts of some, residents haven't let it dampen their enthusiasm. These decorations are the result of months of work and represent the passion for keeping their traditions alive.

Currently, five streets feature spectacular decorations, each with a different theme, demonstrating a high level of creativity and dedication.
