Answer

What is a correfoc in Mallorca and what should you expect?

A correfoc is a traditional street event in Mallorca where Dimonis and other performers use fire, costumes and music to create a loud, dramatic procession. It is lively and atmospheric, but it can also be intense because sparks, smoke and noise are part of the experience. Visitors should stand back, wear sensible clothing and follow local safety advice.
