The Bellea del Foc 2026, from the Explanada bonfire, has expressed concern about social media comments, asking for them to be stopped to avoid personal harm, while facing her year with great enthusiasm.

The highest representative of Alicante's Hogueras 2026 has begun her reign with overflowing enthusiasm, promising to experience the Fiesta with the same closeness and passion she has shown so far. With great responsibility, she is determined to enjoy this dream authentically, sharing her joy with the 'foguerers' and her maids of honor, with whom she already feels part of a great team.

"I have received comments both on my bonfire's social media and on my own, and it's something that should be stopped."

Regarding her election, the Bellea del Foc confessed great surprise upon hearing her name in the Plaza de Toros, as she did not believe it would be possible. She highlighted the support received from the public and her companions, feeling very embraced. She believes the jury valued her simplicity, closeness, and transparency, in addition to the love she feels for the Fiesta.
The representative of the Hogueras also spoke about her bonfire, Explanada, of which she is the first Bellea del Foc. She expressed that it will be strange to experience the Hogueras without them, but that the enthusiasm is shared by her entire family and bonfire. Furthermore, she celebrated the commission's double with the children's maid of honor, Lucía Colilla.
In relation to her institutional agenda, the Bellea del Foc 2026 and her maids of honor will be received by the president of the Generalitat, Juanfran Pérez Llorca, on Thursday, June 7, at the Palau de la Generalitat. They will also participate in an official reception at the Alicante City Council, where the mayor, Luis Barcala, will welcome them and show them the council building.

"The excitement of this position is not just mine; it belongs to my entire family and my entire bonfire."
