Concerts begin each afternoon and continue until five in the morning, with simultaneous performances across different stages.
The festival's celebration coincides with the forest fire in Vall d’Uixó, which has already ravaged over 9,600 hectares. The fire's proximity has prompted authorities to reinforce security measures and maintain constant vigilance.
The Civil Guard has announced the deployment of additional agents from other provinces to bolster security at the festival and its access points, aiming to ensure both emergency response and the smooth running of concerts and parallel activities.
The Government delegate in the Valencian Community, Pilar Bernabé, stated after a coordination meeting that the priority is twofold: 'to guarantee attention to the fire and allow the festival to proceed safely for the approximately 150,000 expected attendees'.
Meanwhile, the Minister of Emergencies and Interior, Juan Carlos Valderrama, highlighted that the Arenal Sound has a special emergency plan and maintains continuous communication with the regional government to assess any situation changes.
Furthermore, the Burriana City Council has established a Preventive Command Post, operational until Monday, to coordinate responses to potential incidents related to the event or the fire, in contact with security and emergency services.
The security setup has reviewed evacuation routes, emergency access points, medical stations, capacity controls, and water supply points, as well as 'Puntos Violeta' (Violet Points) for addressing and preventing gender-based aggressions.
Prior to the gates opening, an extraordinary security meeting is scheduled for Thursday to finalize operational details and update information on the Vall d’Uixó fire's evolution, ensuring the public can enjoy the concerts with maximum guarantees.
