October 9 th is the Day of the Valencian Community and this day we commemorates the entry to the city of Valencia of King James I in 1238 .

Utiel ; but October 9 th was chosen as the most representative date , because Valencia is the capital of the Kingdom of Valencia and currently of the Valencian Community .
