Carnival Sunday In Vilanova I La Geltru: The Candy War.
People are celebrating the traditional candy war, declared a Heritage Festival of National Interest, in Vilanova i la Geltru, Spain, on February 11, 2024. The celebration is underway as various groups and associations known as ''Comparsas'' are dancing and parading through the streets to the rhythm of a military march called ''El Turuta.'' The festivities will culminate in the town hall square with a pitched battle of candy. This year, the festival has attracted more than 10,000 participants. (Photo by Marc Asensio/NurPhoto)
