Fallas sections
The classification of monuments in one or another section depends on the budget. For large monuments, the barrier is set at 36.000 euros, while on small monuments, that barrier is marked by 13.000 euros. Monuments that exceed those figures will be part of the special section, while those below will compete in the first section.
Award ceremony
The event, surely, most anticipated by the falleros and, at the same time, the one that is least expected. The first of the three big days is the one chosen to reveal which monuments will receive the pennants of each category and section.
Place
Every year, the awards ceremony for the Fallas de Dénia takes place from the town hall (except for some specific exceptions). It is in its plenary hall where the award-winning monuments in each category and each section are announced, filling the Plaza de la Constitución with hundreds of falleros and falleras eager to know the results. Only the officials from each commission enter the town hall, where they collect the pennant and announce it from the balcony.
