Turisme Comunitat Valenciana has allocated up to 160,000 euros to the City of Gandia to encourage various promotional and marketing actions.
The agreement will allow the City of Gandia to promote local gastronomic culture through culinary demonstrations, publications in specialized media and participation in congresses and fairs. A prominent event was the International Fideuà Competition in Gandia, held on 5 June.
In addition, it seeks to consolidate the cultural offer of Gandia with actions such as the Falla Borgiana, which will be planted in early October, and the event ‘Una mar de músiques i tradicions’ during July and August. Guided visits to the municipal heritage resources will also be scheduled.
