Throughout the year there are many festivals, concerts, and events. During the Fallas Festival, there is a program of activities that are specially designed for young people, such as concerts at night which take place in the Viveros Gardens.
The large open space in the center often turns into an improvised auditorium for recitals. They are especially prevalent during the July Fair, and in spring. The paths fill up with marquees for the book fair and other cultural events. The restaurant terraces also fill up during the Fallas, and they often remain that way until October.
Valencia is a city where nightlife can be lived to the fullest. There are many places to enjoy the lively atmosphere from bars, pubs, and discos, to many clubs that have appeared on the seafront and have turned La Malvarrosa beach and the promenade into an important leisure area.
Some of the most famous discos in all of Spain are in the province, especially on the route from Valencia to Cullera, situated next to the beach. The old course of the Turia River opens up for young people to enjoy one of the largest leisure areas in the capital. The Turia Gardens can be visited on foot or cycling, and the sports facilities there can also be used.
The Arts and Sciences Center is also located here. It is a place for relaxation and culture where people will be able to enjoy the 3-D films at the Planetario-L’Hemisfèric, visit the installations at the Príncipe Felipe Science Museum, and marvel at L’Oceanogràfic, Europe’s largest aquarium.
Spanish nightlife typically begins more into the night than it does in the US. Don’t be surprised if your friends don’t pick you up till 11pm and keep you out till 5 in morning. It is just part of the culture. Valencia’s nightlife is full of people who are raring to get out and have fun, feel the music, and dance. The most popular area is the neighborhood known as the Barrio del Carmen, right in the old part of town, although the clubs and bars around the Avenida de Aragón, Cánovas, Honduras, and Xúquer squares are also very well known. The younger student vibe is to be found centred around the Avenida Blasco Ibáñez.
The beaches of La Malvarrosa and Levante offer a wide variety of places to dine and enjoy a quiet evening by the sea. To the south, nature becomes predominant at Saler Beach and in the L’Albufera Nature Reserve, where the sun can be enjoyed in unique surroundings. The beaches of Cullera, Gandía, and Oliva combine beautiful landscapes with a number of sporting and recreational facilities. Interesting walking and biking routes await you inland, such as the one defined by the course of the Turia River which Valencia sits along. Try visiting some of the many charming towns in the area like Buñol, Requena, and Xátiva.
