There are so many places you could visit on budget festival tours when travelling around Europe - but which ones are must-visit locations? The best way to figure out the main places to head to on Europe tours is perhaps to follow the crowds. One particularly popular festival is Oktoberfest, which takes place each autumn in Munich, Germany. The event draws millions of revellers from around the world, all of whom are keen to try some of the many beers that are served up in tents of all shapes and sizes. These festival tents also offer food and entertainment, with each one providing a unique experience that caters to a specific taste. Of course, you will also have the opportunity to explore Munich itself. Make sure you visit the Hofbrauhaus - the most famous beer hall in the world - as well as the city's various palaces, museums and parks. If you're looking for a European festival that will get your heart racing, why not head to Pamplona in Spain for the San Fermin Fiesta? This event has the famous running of the bulls as one of its main features - this sees a group of young people dash ahead of a rather dangerous herd of bulls on a half-mile route from their pen to the bullring. The participants need to stay focused so that they both outrun the bulls and avoid falling over and potentially getting trampled. Processions, music and the Pobre de Mi closing ceremony outside the town hall are other enjoyable elements of the San Fermin Fiesta. Finally, La Tomatina in Bunol, Spain offers an altogether different experience. If you love the idea of taking part in the world's biggest food fight, this is the place to go. Each year, tens of thousands of people engage in the practice of throwing soft tomatoes at each other for precisely one hour. The event creates quite a spectacle - and requires participants to be thoroughly hosed down afterwards! Bunol is located in Valencia and offers plenty of sightseeing opportunities for those keen to explore the area once the tomato-throwing is over.
