June 23

The St. John's, celebrating the summer solstice, is celebrated on La Gomera. Even the natives kindling fire, to thank the gods for the harvest and to ward off evil.
They celebrate with a combination of Christian and pagan traditions. First, we intend in procession to San Juan, and later in the evening to light the pyre.
On the beach, three large fires were kindled. Live music plays. Performances by fire dancers and fire eaters are presented. The village choir sings traditional songs, which remind us strongly of the Ticino traditional songs like Oh bella ciao, bella ciao ......,. Spanish families sit together and enjoy their home cooked delicious dishes, it will be a barbecue and everywhere is a wonderful feeling to feel.
