Although it's a Valencian holiday, the SUMA site for Rojales says it is open tomorrow from 8:30 to 2pm.
Closed Wednesday (along with everything else).
Sabadell website says its Rojales branch is also open tomorrow and closed Wednesday.

Never known anything to close on the San Vicente day except Mercadona which is open until 2pm.
