Sant Joan bonfires
Sant Joan celebrations for the summer solstice
About this favourite
As much as the summer solstice is celebrated in Scandinavia, the tradition also extends to many other parts of the world and Spain is no exception. In Barcelona bonfires are lit on the beach to celebrate Sant Joan, fireworks light the skies and boys and men jump over the flames. In the north of Europe it's 3 times but in Spain it's 7 times to cleanse the spirit and drive out evil.
