This class of falles was first started in 1942 and originally included the falles of Barques, Reina-Pau and Plaça del Mercat. Currently, none of these are still in the group. The commission that has most often participated in this group as of 2009 was Na Jordana, with 56 times.

Things one should be aware of:
On Abril - 16 - 2009
Despertá
* Most of the streets in the city are closed to everything but pedestrian traffic and it is difficult to get around. The best way to get around is either by walking or taking the public transportation. Driving a car is not a good idea.
* Most of the restaurants are very crowded and some are not open. There is usually very long waits and slow service and you should plan for this in your schedule.
* Most of the hotels are also very crowded and should be booked in advance.
* Many people throw fireworks near pedestrians and its very easy to get burnt or injured.
* Some of the fallas like Nou Campanar are well outside the city center and are quite far by foot, it is much easier to take a bus.Sot de Chera, Xátiva, Sagunto, among others.
