Autumn Festivities

-We celebrate Autumn festivities in October.
-We celebrate them for three days.

-How do we celebrate?
-In the morning of the first day workers fix the stands up and in the afternoon all is ready for people to come and enjoy with the funfair. At night the CORREFOC begins in la Plaza de la Vila.

-What is the correfoc?
-It’s similar to the bonefire night. There are four very important character: The Magpie, the Dragon, the Mule and Banyetes (kind of evil).

They dance and are followed by people dressed as devils.Then people follow them. The main characters throw rockets and often fireworks.
