Correfocs, fire runners, are a tradition from Catalonia, Valencia, France, etc. Men, women, children run through the fireworks while dancing or playing the drums. Dressed as devils, usually there's a main character, a dragon, a demon, etc, in the center of the dance. This photo was taken in Tarragona, ancient roman Tarraco, in Catalonia.
