Morgen schiet Pirotecnia Marti hun mascleta. Het volgende vond ik op FB op de pagina

Pirotecnia Martí to put in an emotional show in memory of all women...
This Friday 8th March is International Women’s Day, it is also the day that Pirotecnia (Reyes) Martí will shoot the Mascletà at 14.00hrs in Plaza Del Ayuntamiento.
You may remember that Pirotecnia Martí headlined the Fallas gunpowder calendar last year with many shows, including Nit del Foc, the ultimate Mascletà for the festival of San José and of course La Crema for the Falla municipal in Plaza Del Ayuntamiento.
More recently, I was very fortunate to get to speak with Carlos Martí, son of Reyes Martí a few weeks ago and asked him, without giving away any secrets, what could we expect during their Mascletà display for International Women’s Day on the 8th March.
Carlos told me the following;
“to open the show there will be the traditional opening salutes and traca Valenciana (Spanish Cracker)”.
Carlos continues,
“From this the next part of the show will be all digitally fired single shot pyrotechnics including black smoke salutes and whistles to last a duration of one minute and this minute will be in memory of the women we all miss”.
“
After this, delayed sequenced reports and salutes will bring us into a continuation of larger single shots with salutes, whistles-report and coloured mines”.
After the main body of the show they will begin with the aerial section fast, closed and starburst ground thunders and loudest terremoto (earthquake)!!
Carlos then told me, “
For the end of the show, it will be a crazy 25 seconds that includes; 600 salutes and more than 2500 reports”! Wow!!
Obviously we don’t want to spoil any of this show for anyone, and believe it or not there will still be plenty more throughout the display to make your jaws drop while being an emotional show at the same time.
These are certainly the guys and girls that will do it in style and we cannot wait to help and support them on Friday 8th March in Plaza Del Ayuntamiento.
Plaza Del Ayuntamiento isn’t the only place you can get to see Pirotecnia Martí during Fallas... we will be releasing a list of their other Mascletàs as soon as we receive it.
Thank you for your time Carlos and good luck for tomorrow...
