Below we list just a few.
Travel Spain: Sanfermines
This event is more commonly known by its English title: the Running of the Bulls. The Festival of San Fermin in Pamplona starts on July 7th of every year and lasts for a week. Each morning men, wearing the traditional white shirt and red sash, take to the streets, trying to outrun the bulls behind them. There’s more to it than just the bulls, of course. You’ll find carnivals and ferris wheels during the day, (as well as “drunken revellers”.). At night the Comparsa de Gigantes – gigantic puppets – are paraded through the streets, accompanied by brass bands. The festival culminates at midnight on July 14 at the Plaza Consistorial, where people congregate to sing the traditional mournful notes of the “Pobre de M”.
