- Food Festival: La Tomatina : La Tomatina is a famous festive event that takes place every summer in the Valencian town of Buñol. Lorries dump 4000 tonnes of overripe pulpy semi-rotten tomatoes in the town hall plaza, already packed with eager participants, divided into two (2) teams. These proceed to hurl the tomatoes at each other in a scarlet orgy of destruction, and great fun is achieved by all.
