We spoke to former Erasmus<\/strong> survivors and put together some expert advice for living through Valencia\u2019<\/a><\/strong>s biggest and most outrageous festival. Welcome to Xceed<\/strong>\u2019s Top 8 Fallas tips for this 2018<\/strong>\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. BEER FOR BREAKFAST<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The number one tip from past survivors who demand you \u201cWake up with a beer and never stop drinking!\u201d It\u2019s the only way to fight that dirty hangover and continue the fiesta<\/strong>. You can’t afford to miss out on a single day of action, so don\u2019t be the loser who stays at home. Apologise to your liver in advance and keep swigging that Amstel.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0USE PROTECTION<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Ok so not the kind your mother talks about\u2026 just some earplugs. Masclet\u00e0<\/strong> is said to be the craziest part of the entire festival. Each day at 2pm in Plaza de Ayuntamiento, more than 120 decibels of sound and 100 kilos of gunpowder are ignited in the air! So remember earplugs people and you will appreciate still being able to hear at the end of the week.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

3. VERBENAS<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Verbenas are key to living the Fallas 2018<\/strong> experience to the full. They are the nocturnal street parties<\/strong>, parades and concerts with live DJs and artists\u2026 If you\u2019re cool, this is where you\u2019ll be every night #teamnosleep<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

4. CHURROS AND PAELLA ALL DAY ER\u2019DAY<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Tip number 4 is obviously eat all the churros<\/strong> and paella<\/strong> you possibly can! Fallas<\/strong> is the time where you will see the most churrerias and paella makers in Valencia so fuck the calories. What else is going to soak up that vodka?!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

5. GOOD SHOES AND LOTS OF BOOZE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Comfortable shoes are a MUST. You will be dancing until the early morn in the street discom\u00f3viles and the ni\u00f1os will be tossing firecrackers at your feet all day (annoying AF) so put the toes away. Did someone say BOTELLON<\/strong>?! Yes that\u2019s right, also for this edition of Fallas 2018<\/strong>,\u00a0botellones will be the way of life.<\/p>\n

PRO TIP:<\/strong> Make sure you buy your alcohol in advance, drinks can be super pricey whilst bars and restaurants are overcrowded\u2026 nobody got time for dat!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

6. STREET ART AND FIRE<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Expect to see some of the coolest street art<\/strong> and fire<\/strong> displays<\/strong> throughout the city. Sights to definitely check out are the incredible street lights in the Ruzafa district, the nightly firework shows at the Turia riverbed and finally the craziest night of them all \u2013 La Crem\u00e0<\/strong> aka when the whole of Valencia goes up in flames. Try not to die por favor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

7.\u00a0FALLAS FESTIVALS \/\/ PARTIES \/\/ CLUBBING<\/strong><\/h3>\n

No doubts that during the Fallas<\/strong> festival<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0most of the attractions are around the city. The whole town of Valencia<\/a><\/strong> is literally set\u00a0ablaze<\/strong>. The\u00a0 streets fill up with joy<\/strong> and\u00a0hustle<\/strong>, and the people enjoying with curiosity how the citizens are used to celebrate this crazy event.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, if you are also up for a night in a club, to experience this Spanish occurrence dancing with the best music, don’t forget to check the events that the main clubs<\/strong><\/a> of Valencia will throw during the night. From underground<\/strong> parties, to 12-hours<\/strong> of non stop music festivals<\/a><\/strong> packed with an infinite list of artists, the Valencian’s clubbing scene will got you covered.<\/p>\n

8. STICK TOGETHER<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A city crammed with millions of people means getting lost can be pretty easy, so try and stick with your pals. If you do end up lost though, see it as an adventure\u2026 most of the fun of\u00a0Las Fallas<\/em>\u00a0is disappearing into Valencia\u2019s streets and unwrapping the craziness for yourself. Plus, everyone likes making friends when they\u2019re drunk right?<\/p>\n

If you made it till here: congrats! You are now ready for Fallas<\/strong>! It is unlike any other festival on the planet, bizarre at times, bordering on suicidal the rest of the time and just fucking insane all the time. But one thing is for sure, it will remain in your memory long after the ringing in your ears has subsided.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We spoke to former Erasmus survivors and put together some expert advice for living through Valencia\u2019s biggest and…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":526,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[115],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-250","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"cs-entry","9":"cs-video-wrap"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTop 8 Tips To Survive Fallas 2018 -
