Midsummer Night Festival of Water and Ham. Lanjaron.
Midsummer night, on the eve of Saint John's, 24 June, - that's when the Carrera del Agua, the Water Run, takes place, lasting about an hour. The one and a half kilometre run is a free-for-all, when people drench each other with any means available: hosepipes, water-filled balloons, buckets of water, water pistols....
There is also a lively procession along the town's main street, with music and fancy dress...
