Elda’s Fiestas Mayores kick off on Saturday 6 September with fireworks and a lively parade to set the mood.
The music starts straight after. In the early hours of Sunday (01:30), Los 40 Principales DJs: Dani Moreno, San Bernardino, and Aitor Belda will take over the Nuevo Almafrá esplanade for a late-night party session.
