The "Dianas"

The "alarm clock" of Sanfermin

Las Dianas is the name given to the daily trajectory taken by the official Brass Band of the Town Hall through the streets of the old quarter of Pamplona. They set off from the Town Hall every morning at 6'45 and parade through the streets playing local San Fermin tunes and other traditional ditties.

The band tends to gather an assorted collection of people behind it. Some of the crowd are made up of early morning risers, mothers with young children and seniour citizens usually. At the same time there is a large crowd of the late night revellers who are still on a high and perhaps waiting for the bull-running to begin at 8 o´clock. It´s worth having a look a the scene at least once.
