The La Tomatina is a festival held on a Wednesday towards the end of August in the town
of Bunol in the Valenela region in Spain. The weeklong festival includes music, parades,
dancing, and fireworks.
About 30,000 people come to the tomato fight, while Bunol's population is only 9,000.
There are not many accommodations for people who come to La Tomatina, so many
participans stay in Valencia and travel by bus or train to Bunol, about 38km outside the
city.
Many trucks transport tomatoes into the center of the town, Plaza del Pueblo. The
tomatoes come from Extremadura, where they are less expensive. The signal for the
beginning of the fight is firing of the cannon, and the chaos begins. Once it begins, the
battle is generally every man for himself. People who partake in this event are strongly
encouranged to wear protective safety goggles and gloves. In addition, they must squash
the tomatoes before throwing for safety precautions. Another rule is that no one is
allowed to bring into this fight anything that may lead to a more serious fight, such as a
glass bottle. People must also stay away from trucks and must not tear someone else's
clothing. Somewhere between an hour and two hours, the fighting ends and the cannon is
fired once more to signal the end. At this point nomore tomatoes can be thrown. The
cleaning process involves the use of fire trucks to spray down the streets, with water
provided from a Roman waterway. People find water to wash themselves, most likely at
the Bunol River.
