The Llar Fallera de Burriana was the setting for a historic gathering that brought together over 200 women, representatives of the Courts of Honor and Fallas queens since 1967, in a solidarity dinner for the NGO Amor en Acció.
The Llar Fallera de Burriana hosted an unprecedented event in the history of the city's Fallas. A total of 226 women, who have represented the Courts of Honor and the reigns of Burriana from 1967 to the present day, gathered for a sisterhood dinner with a strong charitable character. The event benefited the local NGO Amor en Acció.
This initiative, which arose from the Fallas Queen of Burriana 2026, Laura Sendra, and the members of her Court of Honor, has become a definitive tribute to all those women who have been part of the festive history of the municipality. Representatives from 43 Fallas years attended, highlighting the presence of the members of the 1967 court, the most veteran of the evening.

"We thought it was necessary for a moment of reunion where the Courts of Honor had the same prominence as the queens, recognizing their relevance to the trajectory of our Fallas."
The central component of the night was the support for the projects that the NGO Amor en Acció develops in Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, the Republic of Congo, India, and Paraguay. After dinner, served by the Brisamar Group, a charity raffle was held, managed by the organization's volunteers, whose proceeds are entirely dedicated to health, educational, and inclusive programs in these countries.
Burriana's response to this call was a massive display of generosity. More than 70 local businesses and sponsors rallied to the cause by donating a wide variety of items and products, allowing the raffle to be a resounding success. The event concluded in a festive atmosphere enlivened by the music of local DJ Xay, closing a day that is now part of the memory of the women who have given life to the Fallas of Burriana over the last six decades.

"It is a source of pride to see how the world of Fallas, which is the heart of our city, unites for such a noble cause. Burriana has once again become an example of generosity."
