Hi everybody!

You should not miss the spectacles that will be taking place this
Sunday in Gracia.

There will be a castellers (human towers) performance at Sunday noon
in Gracia.
Where: Placa de la Vila de Gracia
When: 12:00, 21.8.2011

You can find some information about human towers for example here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castell

There will be a correfoc (a fire run) on Sunday evening in Gracia.
Where: It will start at Placa Trilla and will continue: Gran de
Gracia, Maurici Serrahima, Torrent de l'Olla, Bellver, Placa del Nord,
Robi, Torrent d'en Viladet, Terol, Torrent de l'Olla, Diluvi, Placa de
la Vila.
When: 22:00

You can find some information about fire runs for example here:

Tips: It should not be really dangerous, but you will be able to enjoy
the spectacle better if you wear some cotton clothes. Earplugs may be
useful if you do not like lot of noise.

Personal tip: If you want to go with the firework holders but you are
afraid of sparks like I am, you can go with the drummers, there are
not many sparks falling upon them.
