# Last call to apply for the fallera fireworks grant

   25/05/2026    [fireworks](https://grav.fallas.es/en/noticias/tag:fireworks) [grant](https://grav.fallas.es/en/noticias/tag:grant) [city-council](https://grav.fallas.es/en/noticias/tag:city-council)  

**Fallas commissions have until this Tuesday 26 May, inclusive, to submit their application for the municipal grant covering fireworks expenses for Fallas 2026. The call comes with a cap of €3,000 per commission, and it is time to check invoices, receipts and publicity before the window closes.**

## What has happened

Junta Central Fallera has reminded that the application period for the Fallas 2026 fireworks grant has been open since 7 May and ends on 26 May, both days included. The official reference is issue 84 of the Boletín Oficial de la Provincia de València, published on 6 May, which triggers the twenty calendar days to file applications.

The grant is designed to cover fireworks expenses incurred by fallas commissions during the 2026 festivities. These include, among others, displays such as mascletàs, castillos, correfocs, cordàs, despertàs, cremàs and other costs linked to the pyrotechnic material typical of fallera activity.

According to municipal information, the call has a budget of **€100,000**: an initial allocation of €75,000 that can be increased by a further €25,000. The grant can cover up to 100% of the taxable base of justified expenses, with a maximum of **€3,000 per commission**, and a minimum subsidisable spend of €4,000 including VAT is required.

The application must be accompanied by the justifying account, invoices and payment receipts. In addition, commissions that want to avoid handing in the advertising evidence of the grant again must tick the corresponding option on the application form. A small administrative detail, yes, but one of those that later saves trips and emails.

## Why it matters to the fallas world

Gunpowder is not a decoration within the festival: it is part of the daily pulse of March and of the financial effort of every commission. For many fallas, organising their own display means balancing a budget, suppliers, permits, schedules and coexistence with the neighbourhood. Any direct aid helps sustain a part of the festival that is enjoyed out on the street and that does not always show up in the final balance sheet.

There is also a reading about the festival model. If the City Council incentivises organised, documented fireworks, it is pushing displays towards more orderly channels, with professional companies and clear paperwork. At a time when coexistence within the fallas is being scrutinised, supporting what is regulated can be as important as keeping the tradition alive.

The deadline also arrives in the middle of organising the new season: election rules, scoring, the declaration of fallas 2027 and the sports calendar. In other words, the casal is not on pause. While some delegations prepare competitions and events, others review invoices and receipts. All at once, as always in the Fallas.
