Fireworks Festival

The 400-year-old fireworks festival is held in early September, including 1.20 meter firework shells which produce 800 meter wide explosions, recorded in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest fireworks in the world.[1] The show usually lasts around three hours. The event is sponsored by the local population.
