St John's Day Fiesta, Ciutadella, Menorca, June 2018 (Dia de Sant Joan)

Some of the day time events on the third and last day of the celebrations around St John the Baptist's birthday. Each day there had been over 100 horses taking part in the old centre of Ciutadella the original capital of Menorca. The origins of the celebrations go back many centuries.

This could never be done in Britain, insurance wouldn't allow it without a thousand pieces of temporary metal fencing. We have a lot to learn from nations like the Spaniards. Sos pobles amables des nostre veïnat curin nosaltres de tornada a sa salut.

I agree and over 3 days of the Fiesta I did not see anyone hurt thanks to the skills and training of the horsemen. St John's Saturday was even scarier kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZnK4gIKEps95prs
