Cocentaina is getting ready to host the 679th edition of the Fira de Tots Sants, the second oldest fair in Spain. The old town of the municipality will be transformed this weekend, from October 31 to November 2, to celebrate this historic event.
The fair will have more than 800 exhibitors this 2025, consolidating again as the largest in the Valencian Community. The stalls will be distributed over 10 commercial sectors, offering a huge variety of products: from handicrafts, toys and household items, to an impressive range of gastronomic tastings.
However, the Fira de Tots Sants is much more than a market. It offers the experience of walking through a small medieval village.
The route and the interest aroused by this event have earned it multiple awards: it has been declared a Festival of Tourist Interest in the Autonomous Community, a Festival of National Tourist Interest, an Asset of Cultural Interest and a Festival of International Tourist Interest. Not in vain, every year it welcomes nearly half a million visitors.
So that you do not miss anything of this great historical fair, here we detail the main activities:
