I'll tell you how it is: there's a lot of people inside with "press passes"... I always get there early in the morning when there's no one and the square hasnt' yet been fenced, but there's always lots and lots of people before me when the show starts...

It's a cart.
A huge painted wooden cart which is pulled by two white oxen, and is decorated with fireworks.
There's a wooden dove which sprints along a wire (propelled by fireworks) from the altar, hits the cart and ignites it, and then goes back to the altar in the church, while the cart goes popping for a good 5'...
Scoppio del carro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



This is the crucial moment...
