Don’t miss El Castell de l’Olla in Altea! One of the most anticipated events on the Costa Blanca! In August, it’s celebrated just 7 km from camping Armanello El Castell de l’Olla (The Castle of the Pot), an exceptional pyrotechnic and music spectacle.
For more than thirty years, on the Saturday closest to the feast of San Lorenzo (August 10), we can enjoy in Altea a fireworks display launched exclusively from the sea. On numerous occasions, it has been catalogued as the most spectacular fireworks display in the Mediterranean.
Altea Fireworks in 2024
When?
Saturday, August 10, 2024
Start time and duration?
It begins at 11:59 PM on Saturday night and lasts approximately 20 minutes.
Where?
The best place to see it is from La Olla Beach, in front of the Villa Gadea gardens, or from any boat.
How to get there?
Due to the multitude of people (around 40,000) who want to enjoy this wonderful night, we recommend accessing via public transport. For this, the Tram – Alicante Tramway, has a special extended schedule that you can find on their website www.tramalicante.es. The stop that is 600 meters from the campsite is Disco Benidorm.
Where to dine?
It’s very common for restaurants, bars, and beach bars in the area to prepare special menus to celebrate this popular festival, but remember that it’s practically mandatory to make a reservation in advance. You can also opt to go in the afternoon and dine on the beach. We hope you enjoy it!
