Patum

La Patum, a spectacular festival of fire and dance in the small Catalan town of Berga which was declared a “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” by UNESCO in 2005 takes place every year on the feast of Corpus Christi and begins this year on June 22. It is quite crazy and highly recommended!
