Ricardo Caballer and RICASA returns for #fallas2025 #falles2025 in #valencia to fire the largest mascletà in history this month!
The #Amstel brewery has sponsored the event by Ricardo Caballer, to fire 9 simultaneous mascletaes on Saturday, February 22nd, 2025 with 400kg of gunpowder, each at 19:00hrs!
Three years after announcing his departure from shooting in Valencia, the pyrotechnician will once again fire mascletaes, although this time it will be in a totally charitable manner and with the support of Pirotecnia Vulcano
In Caballer's words: “After everything that happened with the DANA, I needed to return to my land to do what I do best: setting off #fireworks in the areas affected by the #DANA. With the help of Amstel, we are going to bring forward the mascletaes in 9 municipalities with the sole purpose of being able to revive the Fallas spirit in these towns in a totally supportive way.”
This show, a charity mascletà that will be played simultaneously in several towns, will take place on Saturday, February 22 at 7pm in the following towns;
#Alaquàs
#Albal
#Paiporta
#QuartdePoblet
#Benetússer
#Chiva
#Aldaia
#Catarroja and
#Massanassa
With this action, Ricardo Caballer, together with Vulcano and Amstel, wants to support the areas affected by the DANA and help them revive the #Fallas spirit, to mobilise Valencians to these towns, generating a flow of people and emulate the wave of solidarity that occurred after the DANA, but this time to enjoy a fireworks display.
The pyrotechnician has announced that this simultaneous show will be a nocturnal mascletà, synchronised by GPS in the 9 towns, whose municipalities have been chosen for their safety characteristics, thus ensuring the firing. The fact that it is the largest in history is because that is how Caballer has defined it, mentioning that "it will be the largest in the history of Valencia with 3,600 kilos of #gunpowder".

We present the posters and the graphic images for #fallas2025 #falles2025 in #valencia
Statement from Ajuntament de València :
A unique design by the team of Miguel Martí and Sergio Membrillas.
Some of the most characteristic elements of the #Fallas stand out, the fallera walking through the streets of the city, a band musician playing the clarinet, and the falla monument.
The image of the #Falles25 combines tradition with current design, through the falleras, the music and the monument.
Three proposals that make up a conceptual map of the party, with a great variety of colors that will dress #Valencia in 3 colors
Tradition and modernity merge in the image of the #Fallas25.

It was launched on Amazon on the 4th October and as writing this post it has been 11 days and it seems to be a great hit!
Its my personal journey of first visiting Valencia in 2011, my history as a professional pyrotechnician and making the permanent move to the city as an expat in 2017.
You can follow my journey by ordering your copy of, "Valencia & Fallas through my eyes - an Explosive Journey", now only from Amazon.
Already grateful for the positive feedback.

The Monteolivete Bridge passes the test for the #NitdelFoc of #fallas2025 #falles2025
The shot allowed wide areas of visibility and it seems better than in the old riverbed, at the Alameda. That still has its greatest enemies in the depth and of course, trees!
The fireworks display last Saturday , the “Cosmos” show, inspired by Andreu Alfaro, has been the litmus test for the Puente de Monteolivete to become the possible new stage for the “Nit de Foc” of the #Fallas .
Things have to change a lot so that the streets that lead from the Plaza de Europa to the Plaza del Maraton is not the place from which the #fireworks are launched on the night of the 18th to the 19th March, the most important and media-friendly time of the year.
Last Saturday's firing was planned as a test bench for the #castillos visual and to analyse its capacity to fulfil what is not always easy in #Valencia and it will be tested again this Saturday 20th July by Pirotecnia Valenciana SL to ensure that the greatest possible number of people can see it. It is not the best place in the world, because Valencia does not have a perfect firing area for everyone, (one that is large and as central as possible), but the fact that it is fired high up is an advantage that surpasses the new location, in the Turia Garden, which is not bad, but this one is considered better.
More to come on this soon!!
March 2025 for #fallas2025 #falles2025 we're going BIG!!
In collaboration with the Falla Mercado de Castilla commission, and none other than our friends and Sponsors, Hermanos Caballer Pirotecnicos we're bringing back the first, the original, #sponsormascleta or from now on known as #SponsorMascleta25
We're already weeks in the planning and we want to make the BIGGEST traditional terremoto seen in recent years in Valencia!
That's where you come in!
Do you want your name on your own personal masclet in the terremoto? And own a photo of it? Well, become a sponsor!!
Yes, for those that guessed, that was what the mysterious videos were hinting at and well done to anyone that got it!
More information here...

One common question we get asked is, “does Fallas get very busy?”, or it may be something you have heard someone say... but exactly how busy does it get? Simple answer is... EXTREMELY BUSY!!
Check out our photo for a fair idea.
So if it’s your first time to Las Fallas, Valencia, then make sure you are prepared!! I cannot stress that enough. Make sure you take water, maybe something to eat as well as suitable protection from the sun. Many people faint while waiting for the Mascletà every year so don’t become a statistic!
We also strongly recommend getting to the Mascletà at LEAST an hour and a half before shoot time which is always 14.00hrs unless it’s a Mascletà nocturna (night shoot). This is so you can find an area that will suit you, a curb to sit on for example or a wall behind to lean against or even a barrier in front to rest upon. Maybe even invest in a collapsible stall/chair from the local Chinese bazaar for around 10€?
Cruz Rojo (Red Cross) first aiders will be at hand should you have any problems. So just be safe and enjoy!!
Don’t forget, it’s a party!! So please make the most of every minute!
