  "account": "Javea’s Halloween festivities finally came to life on Saturday, November 7, after the postponed Bubota Fest brought a night of spooky entertainment, fancy dress, and music to the Costa Blanca town. Originally set for October 31, the annual event was rescheduled, giving families and partygoers an extra week to enjoy the festivities. The program kicked off at 6pm with a thrilling street parade, led by local percussion group Batucam, making its way from Plaça Marina Alta to the town's main thoroughfares. At 6.30pm, younger attendees were entertained by a special performance titled L'aventura dels pirates fantasmes (The Adventure of the Ghost Pirates), offering a theatrical touch to the celebrations. This was followed by a discomóvil, keeping the Halloween atmosphere alive with music and dancing until the early hours of the morning. Food and drink were available throughout the day and night, allowing revelers to refuel between the various activities. Organized by the Fogueres committee, Bubota Fest infused Javea’s Halloween program with spooky traditions, music, and activities. Despite the one-week delay, the festival still managed to bring the community together for an evening of fun, featuring a costumed parade, children's entertainment, and a late-night disco, proving that Halloween celebrations can continue beyond October.",
