Very celebrated in all the Canary Islands, they can take on various aspects. But in Garachico or Icod, they make fireballs.
Very much celebrated in all the Canary Islands, they can take on different aspects. In San Juan de la Rambla and Garachico, fireballs are made from jute bags filled with sawdust and sprayed with gasoline. This lustrous festival, which is more important every five years, celebrates the summer solstice, but also the eruption of the Trejevo volcano in 1706. In Icod, fireballs are slid around and the two- to three-meter-high "Midsummer torches" called hachos are lit, etc.
