OK i know this has nothing to do with the UK or with the DS3 but i thought I would share something huge that started today in Spain, in concrete Valencia.
Las Fallas is an Festival (Fiesta) which takes part in the region of Valencia.
There is a wiki page for it

I have copied and pasted the next bit from Wikipedia as it explains it better than me.
Today is the day it all kicks off and it starts with La Macleta. Which is a noisy and huge firework display, it is the loudest you will possible hear for a while,it sounds like a warzone. Todays videos:

Each neighbourhood of the city has an organized group of people, the Casal faller, that works all year long holding fundraising parties and dinners, usually featuring the famous speciality paella. Each casal faller produces a construction known as a falla which is eventually burnt. A casal faller is also known as a comissió fallera.
