Valencia now has new representatives: Carmen Prades Gil and Marta Mercader Roig, Falleras Mayores of Valencia 2026.
The city of Valencia is once again buzzing with excitement and pride. Today, the City Council’s plenary hall hosted one of the moments most eagerly awaited by all falleros and falleras: the official proclamation of the Falleras Mayores of Valencia 2026, Carmen Prades Gil and Marta Mercader Roig.With smiles brimming with excitement and hearts beating to the rhythm of the audience’s applause, Carmen and Marta experienced their first major event as the highest representatives of the Fallas world.
Two names that are now part of the history of Valencia’s most iconic festival and who, from this moment on, will carry the voice, spirit, and passion of an entire city.
The ceremony, steeped in symbolism, was presided over by the mayor of Valencia, who offered words of affection and pride to the new representatives. Carmen Prades Gil, Fallera Mayor of Valencia 2026, shone with serenity and elegance, showing from the very first moment how moved she was to represent the festival she holds so dear. Marta Mercader Roig, Fallera Mayor Infantil of Valencia 2026, has charmed everyone with her tenderness, spontaneity, and joy, symbolizing the purity and excitement of childhood in the Fallas tradition.
From Esencia y Corazón, we want to offer our most sincere congratulations and wish them a year full of magic, dreams come true, and moments that will remain etched forever in the memory of Valencia.
Because today their story begins—a story written with essence, heart, and the Fallas tradition.
