Countdown 82 days (11 weeks, 5 days)
La Tomatina is the world's largest tomato fight, held every year on the last Wednesday of August in the sun-baked streets of Bunol, a small town near Valencia, Spain. Since 1945, tens of thousands of participants have descended on Plaza del Pueblo to hurl more than 100,000 kilograms of overripe tomatoes at one another in a one-hour frenzy of pure, gleeful chaos. Designated a Fiesta of International Tourist Interest in 2002, it draws visitors from over 50 countries who come not just for the fight but for a week of fireworks, music, parades, and paella competitions surrounding the event. Count down the days until La Tomatina with our live countdown timer.
