Getting there & the free night bus

You don’t need the car. The town is running a free night bus on Friday night (into Sat) and Saturday night (into Sun) with stops at Parque de los Eucaliptos, Tossalet, Casa de Cultura, Parque Escandinavia, and Rotonda San Rafael. Perfect for a safe ride home after the concerts and mascletà.

Family & safety

  • Punto Violeta y Arco Iris: active inside Parque de los Eucaliptos (22–23 Aug) to ensure fiestas free from sexist or discriminatory violence. Look for the stand if you need support.

  • Kids’ zone: the water-play area on Av. Óscar Esplá runs late morning both Saturday and Sunday. Bring swimsuits and sandals

Local tips (from a Costa Blanca perspective)

  • Mascletà tip: Saturday’s night mascletà is loud—bring ear protection for kids. Best viewing is by the market car park; arrive 20–30 minutes early.

  • Parade vibe: The Friday costume parade theme is Sailors—if you’re joining, keep it light and breathable; August nights are warm.

  • Respect the neighbours: The council is asking for responsible partying in line with local ordinance—celebrate without disturbing residents and visitors.

Free night bus for Fiestas de l’Albir 2025: departures from Avda. Óscar Esplà; Fri 01:30–03:30, Sat 01:30–04:30; stops Tossalet, Casa de Cultura, Parc Escandinàvia, Rotonda Sant Rafael.
