Current Time in Valencia

About Valencia Time Zone

Valencia is Spain's third-largest city and the capital of the Valencian Community, home to approximately 800,000 city residents and 1.8 million in the metro area. It operates on Central European Time (CET/CEST). Valencia is the birthplace of paella — the iconic rice dish with saffron, vegetables, and traditionally rabbit and chicken, which originated in the rice paddies of Albufera lagoon just south of the city. The City of Arts and Sciences (Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias), designed by local architect Santiago Calatrava, is a futuristic complex of museums, an oceanarium, and performance venues that has become a defining image of 21st-century European architecture. Las Fallas, Valencia's spring festival (March 15–19), is one of Europe's most spectacular celebrations — enormous satirical papier-mâché sculptures are erected throughout the city and then burned in a massive bonfire on the final night. Valencia hosted the America's Cup in 2007 and 2010, transforming its waterfront.
