14 Agosto 2011. Correfocs end of fiesta celebration in Hondón de las Nieves
Yet again the village surpassed all expectations with a wonderful couple of weeks of fiesta this year. Considering the financial meltdown we are all dealing with, a couple of weeks of light relief have come as a real boost to many.
There is of course the religeous significance of some of the fiesta days, but it is the entertainment factor with live bands, concerts and of course the correfocs fire runners and fireworks that closes the fiesta that most people look forward to.
There is no way that this sort of cel;ebration would be allowed in Northern Europe. The health and safety departments would ban these celebrations in an instant, however following a nice sedate evening enjoying the medieval market, the street lights are turned off at 1am and from the top of the hill the pulsating, almost hypnotic music fills the air, and the fire runners "light up". Rather than try to illiterate the experience, take a couple of minutes to have a look at the video I took of the evening.

All is normally wrapped up by about 2.30am, which is an early finish during fiesta time and the thousands of people who come to the village for this special night, melt away into the night.
