June is an important month for celebrations across the Valencia region, and many of the key towns and cities hold mini versions, but second to Valencia, this month we will once again experience the “Bonfires of Alicante”, or “Hogueras de Alicante” to give the event its current name, which starts this weekend and runs until San Juan, where we also get another Monday off work.
