La Tomatina Festival

Have you ever wanted to join the thousands of people who gather in a small spanish town every year and hurl truckloads of tomatoes at each other? Well, now the famous La Tomatina Festival is here in London. Expect things to be a little more refined at this veg-filled shindig, which begins proceedings with a tomato-based menu dinner and a masterclass in how to make the perfect Bloody Mary before you get down to the tomato-filled tussle. There are ponchos for those who don't want their hair to turn into Gazpacho, but it wouldn't be very sporting to wear one, would it.
