Noche de Fuego: Open-Air Concerts & Fireworks

San Juan is the night Spain says goodbye to spring with fire, and Pozo Izquierdo does it down by the water. The setting is the barranquillo, a little ravine near the coast, where things kick off around half eight with La otra Oreja running through La Oreja de Van Gogh's softer hits. Maná tribute Rayando el Sol takes over at half ten, with DJ Ulises Acosta filling the gap between.

The real draw is the fuegos acuáticos, fireworks set off over the water so the sky and the sea both light up at once. It's free, it's outdoors, and it leans local rather than touristy. Bring a jacket for when the breeze comes off the Atlantic, and don't expect it to wind down early. San Juan nights tend to run long.
