Festival de Sant Joan, a week-long affair in late June. Neighbourhoods erect their own fogueres - huge, grotesque satirical figures and tableaux, large enough to block the street, made of wood, papier maché and, increasingly, polystyrene. The festival climaxes on the night of 24 June, the longest day of the year, with a fiery free-for-all consisting of a monstrous fireworks display, a raucous ceremonial burning of all the fogueres, and a public hose-down of the last of the ashes and the crowd by the fire department.
Any one going love to meet up as i am going to be on my own
