Comunidad Valenciana

The Comunidad Valenciana is experiencing a significant influx of foreign tourists, with 12.4 million visitors in 2025, primarily from the UK and France, spending an average of 140 euros daily. This economic driver is contrasted by political discourse, with the PP party downplaying the significance of April 25th (the day of the Valencian Parliament) in favor of October 9th. In terms of infrastructure, there are calls for the rehabilitation of public works like Alcoi's Sant Jordi bridge and improvements to sites such as the Tabarca lighthouse and Valencia port. The region is also facing weather challenges, with forecasts predicting heavy rain and cold in the southeast, including parts of the Comunidad Valenciana. Furthermore, the region is grappling with housing regulations, with over 100,000 tourist rental ads removed for non-compliance. The president of the Generalitat Valenciana, Juanfran Pérez Llorca, remains focused on his role, not on future candidacies. The region also saw a rise in caravan tourism and new business openings.
