The fire consumed last night, as tradition dictates, the Fallas monuments of Benidorm on a night marked by the absence of incidents. The commissions of Els Tolls, Rincón de Loix and Benidorm Centro, coordinated by the Local Fallera Board, have filled the streets of the city throughout the week with music, colour and the unmistakable aroma of gunpowder, typical of these Josephine festivities.
The mayor of Benidorm, Toni Pérez, and the Festival councilor, Mariló Cebreros, together with members of the government team, accompanied the president of the Local Fallera Board, Esther García, and the senior and child falleras of the three commissions of the city, in a 'Nit de la Cremà' that, in the case of children's fallaes, began at 10:30 p.m. in Rincón and at 11:00 p.m. in Benidorm Centro and Els Tolls.
At 11:30 p.m. it was the turn of the great monuments and the first to burn was the Rincón de Loix Falla, at midnight it was the Benidorm Centro Falla's turn and, at 12:30 a.m., Els Tolls. All the 'cremàs' were followed by hundreds of tourists and residents who did not want to miss the occasion.
The security device of the Local Police, Civil Protection, Red Cross and firefighters was attentive at all times to the normal development of the events and when the fire consumed them it was the turn of the cleaning services that in record time left the city ready for a new work day.
