This tradition, which dates back to the Middle Ages, begins with the cremation of the Volatín, a figure made of wood and rags into whose mouth a firecracker is placed, supposedly representing Judas. The next day, in the Plaza de los Fueros in Tudela, thousands of people gather to witness the Bajada del Ángel (Descent of the Angel). In this ceremony, a child dressed as an angel runs up to a virgin covered with a black veil, a symbol of mourning for the death of Christ, and removes the veil to represent the resurrection of Christ.
