And also to shout and celebrate. Much of the drink ends up in the clothes or on the floor. The crowd moves in waves. There is no place to stoop.<\/span><\/p>\n The experience is quite strong.

The people who run in front of the bulls are experienced people, although novices participate every year<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Each confinement is different<\/strong>. If it is clean and fast it will last three minutes, intense and showy, enough to observe the exploits of the almost professional runners and the clumsiness of the novices and the imprudence of those who ignore the rules of the race.<\/span><\/p>\n For children there are l parties with different activities such as puppets and puppets, also presentations of dances, street theaters and recitals<\/span><\/p>\n In the streets there are musical performances for all tastes, street music is constant<\/strong> in different places to sing and dance, with international bands and performers, jazz concerts and modern music.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n The final day is celebrated with many dances and music<\/strong>, the last outing of giants and big heads is performed.
