Fira d’Agost festival in Xàtiva
Overview
The Fira d’Agost 2026 in Xàtiva opened with an inaugural ceremony involving Mayor Roger Cerdà and Queen Nadín Ferrando. The event aimed to balance local tradition with ambitions to achieve recognition as a ‘Festival of International Tourist Interest’ following previous years of high attendance.
While the fair concluded with high provisional attendance figures, the event faced significant weather disruptions. Severe storms and a thermal burst on August 15 damaged electrical systems and installations, necessitating the suspension of several activities, including the closing ceremony and a pyromusical show.
Despite these setbacks, major events were successfully rescheduled, such as the Nit Jove concert which drew over 7,000 people to Camp de La Murta. Preliminary data suggests the festival maintained high participation levels across various venues.
