Gigantic fireworks

[Deleted User] · 2006-04-12 17:39:18

Found this while being bored, and I have to say that it looks fairly awesome. And those are some huge fireworks too. I know it's some sort of festival, but does anybody know anything about it? Like what it's about and where it happens?

I'd imagine fire insurance rates are high across the valley.

Can't remember where it is (France or Spain I think), But basically one town pelts the other with fireworks and the other other town returns the favour. It's an annual traditional event but for the life of me can't remember where or why!

Edit: Completely wrong. It's one Greek town and it's between rival churches.
