Ariba! It's party time in Spain as locals take to the streets of Pamplona to celebrate the annual San Fermin festival. Over one million people are expected to don red bandanas and participate in the festivities, including the famous "encierro" (running of the bulls). Spain is famed for its wild and wonderful festivals , which range from a mass tomato fight at la Tomatina in Valencia to bullfighting and flamenco at the Feria de Abril in Seville. Perhaps the oddest of them all is El Colacho , at which men dressed as devils jump over babies to exorcise their demons. Whatever tradition they're marking though, the Spanish really know how to throw a fiesta!
