A few years later the local government banned the tomate fight, but the people continued the tradition ilegally. In 1959, the fight became legal again, but the participants had to follow two simple rules: they couldn’t start throwing tomatoes until a special signal, and they had to stop exactly an hour later. Today, fa tomating is a big tourist attraction. It takes place every year on the last Wednesday in ‘August. About 40,000 people join in the fight and throw over 100 tonnes of tomatoes at each other.
