Around 800 ninots will be put to a popular vote, which exempts them from the fire, in the Esplanade of the New Centre of the city of Valencia. The Ninot Exhibition, as a traditional preface to the Fallas 2008 Fiestas, located in a marquee in the Esplanade of the New Centre of the city of Valencia, houses all the figures, ninots, that will fight to win the much yearned for reprieve from the fire. This display, which gathers together around 800 ninots from amongst the different children's and adults' categories, will be open until 15th March.
As is already traditional, the exhibited ninots participate in a dearly beloved contest, the result of which depends on a popular vote, which will decide which figure or groups of figures will be saved from the Cremà (Burning) on the evening of 19th March and will go on to form part of the Fallero Museum collection, to be admired by visitors to the city of Valencia.
