The city of Alicante completely transforms the centre's landscape for the Band and Commission Parade, which will take place this Saturday, 14th June, starting at 7 PM, from Luceros to the Town Hall square.
Due to this inaugural parade of the Hogueras de Alicante, the Alicante Tram extends its hours with special night services, and the urban and interurban buses modify the routes and stops of up to 16 lines.
For services, the Alicante Tram will extend the routes of lines 2 (San Vicente del Raspeig), 3 (El Campello), and 4 (Playa de San Juan-Plaza la Coruña) during the night of this Saturday, 14th June, to avoid private vehicle travel during the Band Parade of the Hogueras.

Thus, the Alicante Tram will provide extraordinary service until 3 AM on Sunday. The trams will mostly run in double composition, as will happen during the weekend's mascletàs schedule to double the seats.
Regarding the Band and Commission Parade, FGV will operate a total of 60 trams connecting Alicante city centre with the usual destinations. It should be noted that the special services will not stop at the Sangueta halt.
Night Tram Line Schedules
Line 2 (Luceros-San Vicent del Raspeig) will offer the most services, with 26 circulations, thirteen in each direction. From Luceros, the first special service will depart at 10:39 PM and the last at 2:24 AM. From Sant Vicent, the first will depart at 11:09 PM and the last at 2:54 AM.
Line 3 (Luceros-El Campello) will offer twelve outbound and three return trips, 15 in total. The first will depart from Luceros at 11:19 PM and the last from the same station at 3:39 AM. On the return, the first will depart from El Campello at 10:10 PM and the last at 11:10 PM.
This route will be reinforced with the last three circulations departing from Hospital Vila (10:45, 11:05, and 11:35 PM) and usually ending their journey in El Campello, but on Saturday, they will continue to Luceros with optional stops at all halts except Sangueta, as the L-3 does.
Line 4 (Luceros-Plaza La Coruña) will launch sixteen circulations, eight units on the outbound route, the first at 10:59 PM and the last at 2:29 AM. From Plaza La Coruña, there will be another eight circulations, the first at 11:30 PM and the last at 3 AM towards Luceros.
