LOLAILO Just a stone’s throw from the Mercado Central, ‘Lolailo’ has become a big hit in Valencia with both locals and visitors. This is a real Spanish restaurant with a lively and hospitable Spanish owner. There are also live flamenco shows every week! They are the real deal as they include the cream of flamenco guitarists, singers and dancers from the region…

Lolailo is a very spacious place with plenty of room for large groups as well as couples looking for a night out in a genuine ‘south of Spain’ atmosphere. The interior and exterior are beautifully designed, like an Andalusian taberna from days gone by, with paintings, decorations and flamencorelated objects from that part of the world.

At the back of the restaurant, you will find a huge open-air terrace where you will be Article © 2016 24/ 7 Valencia

Valencia is a city that divides opinions. It was once described as a “drab, provincial town” but more recently has been lauded as the “Mediterranean city par excellence”. During Fallas, you could be forgiven for thinking you are in a surreal, Spanish version of ‘Mardi Gras’ meets Brazilian ‘Carnaval’. Valencia is most certainly not dull and characterless!

In this month’s special March edition, you will find a veritable plethora of exclusive Fallas photos just for our readers. We also have a ‘24/7 Valencia Fallas Guide’ for those of you living in or visiting Valencia.

Check out our packed agenda at the back for those of you looking for live music and clubbing nights.

Talking of music and dance, we have an exclusive interview with salsamuffin superstar ‘Sergent Garcia’ who discusses his latest album and his globetrotting adventures whilst recording it.

Feature writers David Rhead and José Marín interview a local Falla for an inside view on the Fallas from a down-to-earth and traditional ‘Casal’ of the city.

With Valencia CF struggling in La Liga but still in Europe and Levante UD fighting against relegation, writer John Howden has plenty to report in ‘Valencia Football!’

In ‘Chill Out’, we report on the tapas bar and vinyl record shop ‘Monterey Bar & Discos’ in the heart of the historic centre.

Our ‘Taberna of the month’ is ‘Embrujo

del Carmen’, a cosy Spanish tavern tucked away in a side street near Valencia cathedral. Food reviewer Tim Birch pays a visit to the hip, tasty and friendly ‘Picnicity’ in the old town. In this Spring month for those with a sweet tooth, Helen Westwater of ‘La Ola Fresca’ has a ‘Croissant’ recipe just for readers!

Given that Easter falls within the month of March this year, we look at the tradition of ‘Pascua’ in the city, with plenty of colourful processions by the port.

At its heart, Fallas is a chance to poke fun at the high and mighty and reflects the somewhat rebellious character of the Valencia region. Jesus Christ was also an outsider, dismissed by the powers-that-be in his day but many would say that he had the last word. That word is LOVE. Have a fantastic Fallas and rejoice… for Spring is on the way!

FALLAS GUIDE 2016

Are you interested in folklore? Tradition?

Big dresses? If you are, stick around.

Valencia has all that and more, during the celebration known as Las Fallas.

Read this and consider yourself armed for the festivities.

LAS FALLAS During the second week of March, you’ll see these large sculptures being set up at practically every street corner.

Anything can be represented in a falla; the 10 Commandments, the plight of the crippled, world peace or belly-button lint. These are then ceremoniously burnt (in La Cremá) by proud firemen on the night of March 19.

EL CASAL Think of a friendly neighbourhood association (again, at every street corner) whose main mission, apart from setting up its falla, is to wake you and all your neighbours up at 04.00h every morning. You’ll finally get back to sleep, only to be awakened again by its morning marching band (La Despertá).

You can avoid this by joining a casal yourself, allowing you yourself to be the object of your neighbour’s hatred.

For hardcore Valencianos (nearly all of them). City Hall, not wanting to miss out on the fun, holds its own circus of noise every afternoon during Fallas at 14.00h. The Plaza del Ayuntamiento is stocked with enough firecrackers to blow up a small country, which are then all lit. Loud explosions leading up to a crescendo of painful sonic booms typify a good mascletá. Generally lasting 5-10 minutes, the experience will leave you with gunpowder and sulphur in your lungs and bleeding ears, but hey, who cares? You’re only young once.

LAS FALLERAS Watch out! You could be knocked over by one if you’re not paying attention.

More than just a big dress, the fallera’s costume is the non plus ultra of traditional fashion wear. Covered by enough lace, brocade and satin to bury

take part in all the city’s festivities. You’ll see them representing their casals pictures, making paellas on the street and

breakdowns,

smiling all the while. Acute observers will make the comparison between the fallera’s hairstyle and a certain science fiction film character, but the similarity ends there. These are Valencian Earth girls, born and bred.

THE NIGHTLIFE A misnomer, actually. The nightlife lasts all day and night for the first three weeks of March. Valencia doesn’t sleep, and if you think you will, you are mistaken.

My advice is to do what bar, pub and restaurant employees do; take copious amounts of stimulants and stay awake.

There’s no point in sleeping. No point!

LOCAL FALLAS

LOCAL FALLAS

David Moratalla Pulido is the president of a small neighbourhood falla at Séneca-Poeta Mas i Ros in the city of Valencia. We asked him what the festival is like away from the giant fallas of the special section.

How and why did you become a fallero and eventually the president of the falla?

I joined the falla through a friend of mine who invited me over to the casal and I decided to join. I became president when I took over from the previous presidente who had been doing the job for three years.

Are all your family part of the falla?

order to hopefully make things run smoothly.

What are the biggest problems a president of a small falla faces?

What kind of events have you got lined up at the Séneca-Poeta Mas i Ros falla?

The main problem is juggling the small amount of funds you have to spread around the many different expenses the falla has.

As we approach the big week (1220 March), there are more and more activities and events. We have fancy dress parades around the neighbourhood, a paella festival, openair disco, dance competitions, barbecue, storytellers, children’s entertainment, mascletás, etc. We put a lot of enthusiasm and fun into all of this, it’s all about enjoying yourself.

What is different about being part of a smaller falla in comparison, for example, to the big fallas in the special section?

What does being president of a falla entail?

For the falleros themselves, there’s a closer sense of community and togetherness in a small falla. We all know each other, so there are less ‘cliques’ than there might be in the bigger fallas.

The president represents the falla at different public events and coordinates the activities of the different parts of the falla (the secretary’s office, children’s section, lottery, festival events…) in

For the general public, of course, the monuments and events in the big fallas, mostly due to the greater amounts of money they can spend, are more spectacular and attractive.

Yes, the whole family is involved, my wife and my two sons are all falleros.

The fallas always seem to be real family affairs where all generations mix in and have fun together. Would you say this was true?

It’s certainly true in our falla; everybody from the youngest to the oldest contributes towards making the festival work.

Fallas can be pretty noisy affairs. Do you have a good relationship with the neighbourhood?

We have a good relationship with the neighbourhood. We try to be respectful as regards times and late hours and generally interfere as little as possible with the normal, day-to-day comings and goings of the area. We have some ‘open-door’ events where everyone who wants to is welcome to take part.

For you personally, what is the best part of Fallas?

Without doubt, that would have to be the mascletás.

twentyfoursevenvalencia 9

BY DAVID RHEAD AND JOSÉ MARÍN And which events at your falla do people most enjoy?

Each event has its own appeal. One event that is very popular amongst the falleros and the people of the neighbourhood is the paella festival. Going off to collect the ninot from the exhibition is a fun thing that everyone gets involved in and enjoys; you also have the more emotional events like the Ofrenda and the Cremá, which are really important to us.

How is the falla financed? Who pays for all this?

We are mainly financed by the quotas the falleros pay to be part of the falla and there are some municipal grants. We also get some contributions from local businesses in the neighbourhood who help out with the ‘llibret’, a sort of commemorative brochure, which each falla produces.

Tell us about the monument you are planning for Séneca-Poeta Mas i Ros this year.

We are fortunate to have amongst our falleros one of the top fallas artists, Paco Giner, who also designs and creates fallas for the Special Section.

We are lucky to have him and he makes us some fantastic monuments.

This year, the main falla will go under the title of “Eastern Invasion” and the main figure is a geisha.

The small falla will be called “The Garden”; the main figure is a little girl.

What goes through the president’s mind when he finally sees the monument all finished and set up in the middle of the street? Can you really 100 per cent enjoy the festival or do the responsibilities of the job get in the way?

Seeing the monuments set up is the culmination of a year’s work, at that moment what I am thinking and hoping is that the big week goes by without anything untoward happening. The responsibilities have an influence on how I experience the festival, of course, but I look to enjoy it as much as I possibly can.

Thank you very much, David & José, for giving me the opportunity to tell you about how we experience the festival in the smaller fallas.

Felices Fallas!

VALENCIA MUSIC

SERGENT GARCIA Tell us about your recent experience of travelling from Valencia to the Caribbean in a sailing boat. Was it for musical reasons?

I have been travelling to Latin America and the Caribbean for over 15 years to work and research Afro-Caribbean music. I’ve worked in Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Colombia and it’s always an intense experience.

Exchanging ideas and playing with musicians over there is very enriching.

Travelling to those countries makes you understand many things, musically speaking, but also socially and from a human perspective…you never come back to Europe the same.

Although you travel a lot, Valencia is your home. With the recent Photos by Rafa Monzó

change of local government, do you see the possibility of a more open city towards music and culture in general?

I’m hoping that will happen as many people have seen that, unfortunately, Valencia was turned into a cultural desert for the last 20 years under the previous government. Valencia is a beautiful place and the people here are creative and generous. Yes, I hope that the new politicians will generate more access to culture with more original and alternative proposals. And that Valencia will once more become part of the live circuit because there is an audience but the bands don’t stop here on tour.

What is ‘Cumbiamuffin’?

Cumbiamuffin is the bridge between reggae and cumbia, a Colombian style of music which is a meeting between African, native and Spanish

music. I would add that raggamuffin is a Jamaican music style. It’s a very explosive cocktail on the dancefloor.

Tell us a bit about each song from your new album with the Valenciano title, ‘Contre Vents et Marées’.

Reina del Mar is a tribute to Yemaya, the goddess of the sea from the Yoruba religion, which is very popular in Cuba.

C’est La Vie is a song of love that I wrote with my friend Balbino.

Al Amanecer is a very Colombian cumbia that talks about party drums in the mountains.

Siempre Lo Mismo is a song about the environment and how we lack intelligence as humans living in a world of paradise and turning it into a rubbish dump.

CROISSANTS!

Start the day before you want to eat your croissants!

By Helen Westwater

First take 2 packets of butter (500 gm) out of fridge to allow to soften.

La Ola Fresca

Mix the flour, sugar, yeast and salt and then add 350-400 ml (12-14 fl oz) cold water. Mix together to form a soft dough.

So, while a well-known UK supermarket blows up a storm of scorn from the French…for launching a new, straightlined croissant that is easier for their customers to spread with butter and jam…this March we get back to basics, roll up the shirtsleeves and make our own. With these utterly buttery croissants, you won’t need extra butter and can hence avoid the daunting issue of negotiating the crescent shape!

It seems the origin of the croissant was its ancestor, the kipferl, about which there are fanciful tales going back as far as 732 AD. One story is that it was invented in Europe to celebrate the defeat of Islamic forces and the crescent form is a reference to the Ottoman flag.

However, the adaptation of the plainer form of kipferl is easier to trace and dates to 1839 at the latest. This was when an Austrian artillery officer with the formidable name of August Zang founded a Viennese bakery at 92 Rue de Richelieu in Paris and the popularity of the Viennese speciality took off.

The non-machine version requires many hours of labour, but once you have been through this workout, you can at least console yourself with the fact that you have burnt off some of the calories contained in that fragrant, flaky and freshly baked delight that now lies before you.

There are various arguments for using strong or plain flour but, although plain is easier to knead, the structure of the croissant with strong flour will be more airy. The origin of this particular croissant recipe is adapted from the

CROISSANT

Ingredients • 625 gm (1lb 6oz) strong white bread flour, plus extra for dusting • 75 gm (2½oz) caster sugar • 12 gm fine sea salt • 40 gm (1½oz) fresh yeast • 500 gm (1lb 2oz) chilled unsalted butter, plus extra to serve • 1 free-range egg and 1 egg yolk, lightly beaten Article © 2016 24/ 7 Valencia

On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough till silky and soft (about 10 minutes). To do this, push your fist into the dough, turn the dough 1/4 rotation and then stretch the dough away from you and repeat, rotating the dough after every push. Leave to rest.

Next, place your chilled but not completely hard butter between two sheets of greaseproof paper. Then the fun begins. Roll, smack and do anything you can to flatten the butter until it is about a 30 x 20cm (12 x 8in) rectangle, about 1cm (½in) thick. Return to chill in the fridge until needed.

Turn the dough out again onto a lightly floured work surface. Roll it into a rectangle 60 x 30cm (24 x 12in).

Peel the greaseproof paper from the butter and place the butter centrally on top of the pastry rectangle. Fold one edge of the pastry over the butter to half-cover it, and then do the same with the other edge of the pastry so that the butter is covered. Fold the rectangle, side to side, lengthways as before, then give it a quarter-turn and roll out again to a rectangle measuring 60 x 30cm (24 x 12in).

strips, then cut each strip into triangles about 10cm (4in) wide at the base.

With the narrow point of one of the pastry triangles facing away from you, use your fingertips to stretch the two points of the triangle nearest to you out sideways so that they bow a little.

Roll the pastry over itself, curling it into a traditional crescent shape, so that the furthest and thinnest point of the triangle ends up curled over the top of the croissant. Repeat the process with the remaining pastry triangles to create about 20 croissants.

Place the croissants onto baking trays lined with silicone paper or baking parchment. Brush them all over with the beaten egg, then set aside to prove for 30-45 minutes. (NB: The croissants can be frozen at this point if desired.)

Preheat the oven to 190C /170C Fan/ Gas 5. Bake the croissants for 2025 minutes, or until risen and golden brown.

Of course, if you don’t fancy doing the elbow work the finest croissants you will find in Valencia are baked by the revered El Taller bakery in Benimaclet and if you hurry, you can be served these in La Ola Fresca at breakfast time.

March in La Ola Fresca

Repeat the folding, turning and rolling process three more times (do not roll out the pastry the final time you fold and turn it). Wrap the pastry in cling film and chill in the fridge for at least an hour or preferably overnight.

When the pastry has rested, roll it out to a thickness of 0.5cm (¼in). Cut the pastry into two 50 x 20cm (20 x 8in)

TASCA OF THE MONTH

TASCA EMBRUJO DEL CARMEN Set on a quiet side street of the historic centre, ‘Tasca Embrujo del Carmen’ is a cosy and very welcoming Andalusian & Spanish restaurant. As winter seeps into spring, you can enjoy dining on their flamenco-style terraza with the cathedral forming part of the rather sensual backdrop. Members of the 24/7 Valencia team have dined out here around 20 times since it first opened three years ago. It is special yet completely unpretentious, and the food and service is good!

The cuisine is tasty and very much traditional Spanish!

With fresh ingredients, you can enjoy five rice dishes including a tasty Paella Valenciana to order, a filling Potaje de garbanzos, which is a chickpea stew, and a fresh variety of croquettes. A selection of Fritura de pescado (fried fish) is a typical Andalusian dish and they recommend their wild boar as well as salmon, steamed mussels and prawns in garlic. The range of tapas is impressive and includes chicken, potato, mushroom and squid dishes.

TASCA EMBRUJO DEL CARMEN

Last weekend we enjoyed Huevos a la flamenca, which were vegetables cooked with tomato sauce, Spanish ham, chorizo sausage and egg. It is said to be a dish that gives you energy to last well into the Valencian night! You can also enjoy sharing a Jamon Ibérico y queso curado, which is quality Iberian ham with cured cheese. If you fancy grilled cuttlefish, you can order Sepia a la plancha and you will find that the tapas and menu of the day cartas are in Spanish and English. The main meat dishes include Rabo de toro estafado, which is oxtail stew and a favourite of the team, as well as their Carrillada, which is a cheek of pork with red wine sauce and crunchy potatoes. Fish lovers can savour either grilled or fried codfish as well grilled tuna with potatoes and vegetables. Their Valenciana salad includes lettuce, tomato, onion, carrots, boiled egg, tuna and olives.

Last but not least, we should mention that owner José is a knowledgeable & warm host, full of energy and concerned that customers really enjoy their time here.

They get an international clientele and you’ll sometimes find live acoustic jam sessions with your spontaneous host

adding some joyous cajón percussive rhythms to the set!

For a relaxing lunch on the terrace or a memorable night out dining, this is a place to unwind and enjoy an ‘España’ that still really exists…

RESTAURANT OF THE MONTH

PICNICITY If you walk down C/ Calatrava in the Barrio del Carmen, look for a tiny door that leads to Picnicity – blink and you’ll miss it. Inside is a narrow bar filled with a delicious variety of empanadas, salads and a large selection of great looking (and tasting) cakes. ‘Picnicity’ is the brainchild of an Argentinian/Chilean family, consisting of mother and father and two sons.

The idea is very simple, picnic-style food to eat in or to take away. The decor is white, bright and clean, with nice little details and very pleasant, hand-drawn graphics and type on blackboards. At the back there are a couple of small tables and chairs, and a long picnic bench, sitting on AstroTurf, set against a bare brick wall with brightly-lit individual cards spelling out the bar’s name.

This is where D and I sat. We had been greeted by the mother (Solé) and the sons as we walked in.

Facundo showed us to the bench and offered us beer or wine. We both chose wine – a very palatable house Alcorta Rioja Crianza 2012 sold by the glass at 2€ or the bottle at 20€. He told us a little about the restaurant and suggested we had a degustacíon of the speciality of both Argentina and the house, empanadas (think little Cornish pasties, little pastries with savoury & sometimes sweet fillings). We thought that was a great idea, and he went off to warm some up for us (in a small oven, we noted, NOT a microwave). He returned

with a tray bearing a long wooden board with six different types (and shapes) of empanada.

The flavours were as follows (all are 1.75€ each): Fugazutta: Onion and morcilla (morcilla is a black sausage).

Secreto Iberia y manzana: This is a cut of meat from between the shoulder blade and the loin of prized Iberian pigs, chopped and mixed with apple.

Carne: Minced meat and spices.

Caprese: Mozzarella, cherry tomato and basil (our favourite).

Espinaca: Spinach and ricotta cheese.

Maíz: Creamy sweetcorn filling.

All are served piping hot – though we were eating them accompanied by wine, the traditional way in Argentina would be with beer. All were really very tasty, the pastry exceptionally light and the fillings cooked to perfection. Facundo twisted our arms (not too hard!) and insisted we try a new flavour they were experimenting with, Tuna and peppers.

Very nice it was, too!

At this point, his mother Solé came over to our table and joined us to talk about Picnicity and the family’s plans

for it. They have been open for just four months. Picnicity strives to be different from anything on offer in the Carmen, they are slowly but surely building a great reputation with their empanadas and cakes. Solé explained that everything from the masa (pastry) to the fillings is handmade with care and with an eye to good health. Low-fat ingredients and fresh vegetable and proteins go into their little pasties.

What she didn’t tell us was that she was a well-known singer in Chile in the 1960s and ‘70s and still apparently has a great voice! I have seen some of her performances on YouTube when she went under the name of ‘Marisa’.

She is now it seems more proud of her multinational family and of Picnicity. She was very keen that we try her cakes as she is experimenting and perfecting different recipes –“Try my Sachertorte and my Red Velvet and tell me what you think”. The Red Velvet was a triumph.

The Sachertorte was very nice, we told her, and she said she needed to work a little on it – only a little, we assured her.

Picnicity deserves to succeed, it’s a great place to pop into for a quick snack in friendly, relaxed surroundings or to

you meander round the little streets of El Carmen, or to eat at your desk at

work. There was a constant stream of people doing just those things the night

we went. And who knows, some day there might be live entertainment from Solé as ‘Marisa’!

PAKO APPOINTMENT COULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Gary Neville’s dislike of the January transfer window is well-documented and this was reflected in Valencia’s lack of trade over winter… despite a string of disappointing results.

However, in mid-February, he did make a signing that could make an impact and change Valencia’s fortunes for the better in the latter part of the season.

He acquired the services of the former Liverpool coach Pako Ayestarán to his first team staff. The Basque had previously been at Valencia from 20012004 under the golden years of Rafa Benítez, and more recently was in charge of Maccabi Tel Aviv, when they did the domestic treble in Israel last season.

The appointment was roundly applauded by the fans and the media, and it helped to deflect some of the anger and frustration still lingering in Valencia at the 7-0 drubbing at the hands of Barcelona in the first leg of the Copa del Rey and the insipid league performance in Seville that saw Los Chés lose 1-0 to Betis.

Just prior to Pako's appointment, Valencia had drawn the return leg with Barca in a spirited performance at Mestalla, and then given Neville his first win in La Liga with a crucial 2-1 victory over struggling Espanyol.

Pako’s first appearance on the team bench in a competitive match coincided with undoubtedly Valencia’s best performance of the season.

The opponents were Rapid Vienna in the Europa League and the hapless Austrians were 5-0 down in just over 30 minutes of play, as los blanquinegres played the kind of football that gained them a Champions League spot last season.

The confidence Valencia received from the early goal from Santi Mina in the fourth minute relaxed the whole team and the tie was effectively over when Parejo, Mina again, Negredo and André Gomes added further goals in quick succession.

Valencia added a sixth a minute from time, through Rodrigo, to give Gary Neville the perfect 41st birthday present.

Ayestarán’s influence should not be underestimated in the upturn in Valencia’s form. However, the return of Diego Alves in goal after a sickening injury and the pace of winger Denis Cheryshev have also been major factors.

Stand-in keepers Jaume Domènech and Matthew Ryan have both performed admirably in the absence of Alves, but the Brazilian international is one of the best shot-stoppers in the world and he seems to have a presence that settles the defenders in front of him.

Cheryshev’s directness and electric pace have already created goals and the winning header he scored against Espanyol has already made him a firm favourite with the Curva Nord. His public announcement that he wants to stay with the club once his season loan from Real Madrid expires further enhanced his popularity amongst the fans.

Both Alves and Cheryshev started the tricky encounter with Granada in Andalusia and were instrumental in bringing maximum points back to Valencia.

The 2-1 victory in Granada was then followed by another positive performance in Europe. A clinical display in Vienna saw Valencia claim another convincing victory and post an aggregate score of 10-0 against Rapid.

Valencia returned home to focus on their weekend home game with Athletic Bilbao.

Prior to the weekend game, Valencia learned that the Basques would be their

next opponents in the last 16 of the Europa League.

Valencia started lively and had golden chances to break the deadlock through Negredo in the first half and Alcácer in the second before Bilbao scored three goals in a seven-minute spell. The result did not reflect the performance but did highlight that the team are still not at the level they were last season in front of goal.

Griezmann then broke the deadlock with a

Torres restored the lead for the visitors

March started with a midweek game in Málaga and once again Valencia notched up three points from their travels. Falling behind to an early goal, the visitors equalised just before half-time when the Málaga goalkeeper inexplicably palmed a cross into his own goal when seemingly under no pressure at all. After the match, Cheryshev had the decency or picardía to admit that he had stepped on the keeper’s foot “accidentally”.

Valencia’s winning goal was a peach.

Gomes weaved inside from the touchline before unleashing a cross-field pass into the path of Cheryshev. The Russian took one touch to control it, and then hit the ball crisply with a cross-field drive that gave the goalkeeper no chance.

EASTER AT THE BEACH

EASTER AT THE BEACH All that remains of the old Barcelona railway tracks, which used to cut off the Cabanyal and the other sea front areas from the rest of the city, are a few spaghetti western style stations in Boulevard de la Serreria. The lines now go underground but the years of separation have meant that the “Poblados Maritimos” have always seemed to try to do their own thing.

The city of Valencia doesn’t really go for it at Easter. The big destinations at this time of year are Andalusia and Castille, whose Holy week processions are famous all over the world. Valencia is only just recovering from its own mass festival and everyone seems to be completely Fallased-out. While the rest of city is scrambling to get out to the mountains for a bit of detox and nature, Article © 2016 24/ 7 Valencia

you may find it’s all happening down at the beach.

There are more than 20 different Cofradias or brotherhoods in the Cabanyal who work together to organise the Semana Santa Marinera with impressive names such as Hermandad de Vestas del Santisimo Cristo del Buen Acierto or as its translated on their web site “the hooded brotherhood of the Saintly Christ of the wise move”. Many of their members have only just folded up their Fallas gear and put away their bangers for next year but, being Valencians, this doesn’t in anyway dampen their enthusiasm to start getting dressed up and parading round the streets all over again at the drop of a pointy hat.

Valencian seaside folk have a reputation for ploughing their own furrow and that doesn’t stop at supporting Levante UD football team, eating battered pescaditos

by the ton and protesting against the extension of Blasco Ibañez, a battle they have finally won. In Andalusia Semana Santa is an explosion of flowers and icons, a colourful orgy of very public grief. In Castille, Easter processions are dark reverential celebrations of sombre piety. In the streets of the Cabanyal, it’s a particularly Valencian take on the whole thing. There’s no doubting the religious devotion of the Cabanyal Cofradias and there’s a definite attempt to keep it suitably solemn, but here things tend to be a little more playful and colloquial and, this being Valencia, it’s all rounded off with the ubiquitous big firework display.

First and foremost, peculiar to the Cabanyal, the emphasis is not on the pain and suffering of the Passion, it’s much more of a sort of Resurrection cavalcade.

The icons are brought out for procession,

twentyfoursevenvalencia 43

but not for the Valencians the honour, as in other parts of Spain, of carrying the crushingly heavy wooden models on their shoulders through narrow streets, here they prefer to put the things on wheels and swan along behind them in their Sunday best.

The procession trails down the Calle de la Reina to the sound of traditional music and muted bass drum. While there are a suitable quota of Nazarenes (those blokes who look like medieval wizards dressed in long capes and cone-shaped hats and hoods), Valencians soon realised it was much more fun to dress up as a Roman soldier or a crusader.

While there might be the odd Centurian in processions elsewhere, in the Cabanyal there seem to be whole legions of them.

In fact any biblical character will do including generously bearded Herods and scantily clad Salomes all of them local people with fathers and mothers passing down their part to their sons and daughters. There are games for the kids and much waving and posing for photos for the watching neighbours and families. Then it’s off to the bar for a paella where you might find Pontius Pilate at a table having a well-earned beer with Barrabas or Mary Magdalene

and Judas sharing a plate of calamares.

On Saturday night there’ll be a Castillo by a local pyrotechnician.

The 19th international kite festival called

One curious aspect is that some Cofradias have the right to ask for the release of a prisoner. The powers that be consider each petition and a prisoner is released who then takes part in the procession. The Cofradias usually put forward a minor criminal from the local community. It is of course no reflection on the area that in the Cabanyal they always seem to have plenty of candidates to choose from. One story goes of a local lad who was doing time for burglary in Madrid and was then released and paraded round the streets to the great embarrassment of his mother who had told all the neighbours he was away working in Asturias…

Easter on the 2nd and 3rd of April 2016

In Valencia, to everything there is a season and Easter it is the time for flying kites. The best place for this is Malvarrosa. The sky is awash with the things over Easter weekend and the beach is littered with bored kids waiting for their dads to stop hogging the string and let them have a go or at least let them go home and play on their playstations.

“Festival Internacional del Viento” will take place at Malvarrosa the week after with teams taking part from all over Europe (UK, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Greece, France, Belgium…) and the rest of the world, well, someone’s coming from New Zealand. Then of course everybody forgets about kites again until next year.

No celebration would be complete without its typical food and at Easter Valencians eat Panquemados, Mona de Pascua, a sweet cake in the shape of an animal decorated with dyed boiled eggs and longaniza de pascua, similar to a pepperami in size and shape but not as spicy or oily and it isn’t made entirely of rubber and cardboard. These are usually “enjoyed” in the open air as a sort of midafternoon picnic often at the beach. So, if the weather’s nice get yourself down to the Poblados Maritimos this Easter. If it rains all weekend (as is usually the case) stay at home and watch TV! David Rhead and José Marín Article © 2016 24/ 7 Valencia

Music has been in my family for 12 generations. Our ancestors used to perform at the Royal Courts of Maharajas in Rajasthan. I studied music at the ‘Rajasthan Sangeet Sansthan’ and I play sitar, tabla and other ancient instruments including morchang (like a jaw harp), kartal (like castanets), bhapang and more.

In Spain, I feel like I am at home! Spanish cuisine, the warm weather, the noise and happy-go-lucky atmosphere reminds me of India in many ways. There are also many Gypsies in Spain who share a similar culture to the Gypsies in India.
