Valencia’s wine festival returns this weekend!
If you’re in Valencia this weekend and love wine, there’s only one place to be: the Mostra Proava, Valencia’s beloved local Wine and Artisan Food Fair, which returns from April 24th to 28th in the lush Turia Gardens.
This year marks the 35th year of the festival, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most best yet, bringing together wine, food and culture lovers for five days of tasting and fun in the spring weather.
A Showcase of Valencia’s Best Products
The Mostra Proava is more than just a wine fair—it’s a full showcase of the Valencian Community’s finest local wines and artisanal products. Over 50 wineries and producers from across the region will be pouring everything from bold reds and crisp whites to refreshing rosés and sparkling varieties. You’ll also find stalls offering delicious cured meats, cheeses, olives, andsweets—all locally made and perfectly paired with the wines on offer.
It’s a fantastic opportunity to discover the hidden gems of Valencian viticulture, many of you won’t find supermarkets or even restaurants outside the region.
Tasting Experiences and Live Entertainment
Tastings are at the heart of the event, and there’s no shortage of them. You can either wander from stall to stall sampling, or join guided tastings and wine-pairing workshops hosted by sommeliers and winemakers. These sessions offer deeper insight into the flavors, grape varieties, and winemaking traditions of the area.
But it’s not all about wine—the fesitval also features live music, DJs, and cultural performances throughout the day and evening, creating a great atmosphere that keeps the energy high from noon till night. There’s even a family-friendly zone, so kids can enjoy activities while the adults explore the not so child friendly side of the festival!
A Stunning Setting
One of the things that makes the Mostra Proava so special is its location. Nestled in the green corridor of the Turia Gardens—Valencia’s iconic park built in a former riverbed—the fair combines natural beauty with urban convenience. It’s the perfect place to spend an afternoon with friends, sampling local delicacies under the spring sun with a glass of wine in hand.
