Ninety years of changes in the title of the top representatives of the Hogueras de Alicante

The Hogueras de Alicante are built not only with monumental bonfires and gunpowder, but also through their most representative symbols. Among these stands out that of their top ambassadors, whose title has evolved over ninety years of history.

Since its creation, the designation has undergone several changes, reflecting the social and cultural transformations of each era. What began as Reina del Foc evolved towards terms such as Bellesa and finally Bellea del Foc, the current name that identifies these festival representatives.

This linguistic evolution reflects the search for a unique identity for the Alicante festivities and their adaptation to changing times. The Belleas del Foc have become an indispensable icon of the Hogueras, representing the tradition and festive spirit of Alicante.

Each name change has marked a stage in the history of this celebration, which has become established as one of the most important festivals in the province of Alicante.
