CORREFOCS

Of uncertain origin, the correfocs or fire-runs have been part of Catalan folklore since the Middle Ages and are found in many of the village feasts of the Spanish Mediterranean arc. With considerable popular participation, youths of the village, dressed as devils, run through the streets in an astonishing display of fireworks, whilst from their balconies the neighbours pour water on the revelers, cooling their ardour and putting out any unwanted sparks. The noise and percussive shock from so much gunpowder, ignited with seemingly careless abandon, are matched by the electrified atmosphere of the streets where the celebrants’ excitement is palpable.
