Answer

What is a Correfoc in Mallorca?

A Correfoc is a traditional fire run, usually part of a village festival in Mallorca, where performers dressed as devils move through the streets with fireworks and sparks. It is noisy, crowded and dramatic, but it is also a well-organized local tradition with safety staff present. Visitors should keep a respectful distance and wear proper shoes.
