The Valencia City Council Plenary has established today the local holiday calendar for the year 2027, setting the 22nd of January and the 5th of April as the designated days.

The days chosen for the local festivities correspond to the celebrations of Saint Vincent the Martyr and Saint Vincent Ferrer. During the plenary session, approval was also given to a motion to study the frequency of municipal housing rental aid, with the aim of assessing whether they should remain as annual or biennial calls.
Regarding mobility, the council approved continuing with the implementation of the EMT Master Plan and its planned investment program. This decision includes the commitment to apply the socio-labor improvements included in the public transport company's collective agreement.
Finally, the plenary agreed to reactivate the municipal board for suicide prevention. This body, which had not met since 2023, will function as a space for coordination and monitoring of public policies on this matter.
