Els Tres Tombs Infernals

Popular culture.

Correfoc is a popular cultural tradition that is celebrated in Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands. This tradition consists of a group of people dressed up as puppets and with pyrotechnics parading along the streets of the town or city.

This correfoc is based on a legend, pyrotechnics and a triple correfoc to explain how the devil took Sant Antoni.

There are many versions of the legend of Sant Antoni. One of the most original is the one that represents the Satanic of Sant Andreu als Tres Tombs Infernals, which is now in its 33rd edition.

This play explains how Satan will tempt Sant Antoni with very earthly pleasures: power, food and sex.

If you want to experience the experience of passing under the fires we recommend wearing denim and a cap.
