There are lots of strange festivals around the world which you can even hardly imagine sometimes.

The Tomatina is the worlds biggest food-fight festival. Every year about 30,000 people come to a Spanish town and throw about 110000 kilos of tomatoes at each other.

The Tomatina is usually held on the last Wednesday of August in Bunol, a small town in Southeastern Spain. At 11 am, the first event of the Tomatina begins. A ham is put on a large, greased pole. People try hard to fight each other to bring it down.

When the ham is down, a cannon is fired to tell people to start the tomato-throwing festival. During the fight, people wear eye goggles, gloves and dirty clothes. They must squish the tomatoes before throwing. The fun fight lasts an hour or two, and then the cannon is fired again to signal the end. No more tomatoes can be thrown. Now, people are red, streets are red and the world is red!

The festival began in the town in the 1940s. At that time, a group of friends started to throw tomatoes at each other for no reason. Soon passers-by joined in. People had so much fun that it became a festival and has become bigger year after year. The worlds largest food fight is now a weeklong festival which also has music, dancing and fireworks.
