Once the last tomato is thrown the real party begins. Locals come out with hoses to wash you off and there\u2019s a DJ set up in the main square who leads everyone into an epic dance party.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But I&#8217;m getting ahead of myself&#8230; Let\u2019s talk about how unprepared I was when I arrived in Bu\u00f1ol for La Tomatina.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> I think all the excitement made me forget the tips provided by my tour guides, hotel concierge and locals.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tips I received are critical to having a successful La Tomatina, no matter how nerdy or obvious they sound &#8212; I didn\u2019t follow them and paid the consequences. I would highly suggest the following tips for surviving La Tomatina like a tomato-tossing veteran. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">9 Tips To Survive La Tomatina<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>1. Wear a money belt:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many experts say don\u2019t bring anything, but I\u2019m a strong believer in always having some cash and a credit card on you for emergencies.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As painfully unstylish as a money belt is, it will save you from losing your wallet and you can get them for very cheap. The crowds are so big that I didn\u2019t realize my wallet had fallen out of my pocket until it was too late. My friend who was wearing his money belt still had his valuables as they were attached to his body. Even though I left a majority of my wallet\u2019s contents back in the hotel I did have to cancel my cards and such, which was a major pain while travelling abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>2. Buy a waterproof camera or phone case:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I made the rookie mistake of putting my phone in a plastic bag, thinking I could save money by not buying a waterproof protector. Bad idea. My phone ended up getting soaked with tomato guck in every crevice. I was barely able to salvage it! If you need a case many shops in Valencia sell them as well as the locals in Bu\u00f1ol.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>3. Wear clothes you\u2019ll never wear again:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This was a tip I took to heart and brought old clothes from a questionable fashion phase I had in university. My grandmother warned me tomato was hard to get out, but she never mentioned it smells when it dries up and mixes with your sweat.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are going to bring old clothes make sure they\u2019re white. It will make for an awesome before and after picture&#8230;which you should only take if you have a waterproof camera or phone case.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1069\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1069\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1069\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1069 size-medium lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n-900x900.jpg\" alt=\"13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n\" width=\"900\" height=\"900\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n-900x900.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/13020199_10154164031374571_1275128937_n.jpg 960w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 900\/900;\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1069\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Many cell phones were lost in the taking of this photo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>4. Closed toe shoes<\/b> <b>will protect your dedos de los pies:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are so many people at this event that&#8217;s pretty much a given to have people stepping on your toes. Therefore, flip flops are not proper foot attire. Make sure to wear closed-toe shoes that you won\u2019t mind parting with post-festival.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>5. Pretend it\u2019s a science experiment and wear goggles:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With tomatoes and water coming from every direction, goggles will save your eyes from discomfort. You don\u2019t want to waste any time trying to get tomato gunk out of your eyes! Instead, spend those precious moments finding your next target!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>6. Go past the Palojabon:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Palojabon is a greased pole with a ham attached at the top. It\u2019s tradition to try and climb up the pole to claim the ham. While it\u2019s fun to watch, people bottleneck here and stay for the entire festival, making for a squished situation.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unless you want to be sardined, I suggest walking past the greasy pole. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1067\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1067\" style=\"width: 566px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12988119_10154164030589571_120308590_n.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1067\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1067 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12988119_10154164030589571_120308590_n.jpg\" alt=\"12988119_10154164030589571_120308590_n\" width=\"566\" height=\"566\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12988119_10154164030589571_120308590_n.jpg 566w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12988119_10154164030589571_120308590_n-150x150.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 566px) 100vw, 566px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 566px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 566\/566;\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1067\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Literally how close I could get to the ham.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>7. Squash the tomatoes:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a very important rule that everyone is expected to follow. You DO NOT throw a solid tomato, it has to be squashed or you can seriously hurt someone. I was separated from my group of Aussies during the festival, but when I found them at the end, one of the girls had a black eye! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>8. Agree on a centralized meeting place:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you go with friends you\u2019ll want to share this moment with them. Forewarning you\u2019re probably going to lose them. There are so many people that it is almost impossible to stay together. Decide on a landmark to meet up at just in case. I suggest the Palojabon since it\u2019s a large pole and anything high up is going to be visible from the middle of a crowd. I don\u2019t suggest picking a house with an interesting exterior like I did because by the end of La Tomatina everything will be painted red.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1064\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1064\" style=\"width: 673px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12992872_10154164030549571_530523071_n.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1064\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1064 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12992872_10154164030549571_530523071_n.jpg\" alt=\"12992872_10154164030549571_530523071_n\" width=\"673\" height=\"673\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12992872_10154164030549571_530523071_n.jpg 673w, https:\/\/www.tourradar.com\/days-to-come\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/12992872_10154164030549571_530523071_n-150x150.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 673px) 100vw, 673px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 673px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 673\/673;\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1064\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Streets are littered with our fallen tomato brethern.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><b>9.
