But you need to make sure your bus or train arrives in time. Find out about Buses and Trains to Valencia for Tomatina . Party all night in Buol Another popular option. Much like at the Pamplona Bull Run at the San Fermin festival, people often stay up all night drinking. It's a long night - as the tomato fight doesn't take place until 11am the next day, you need to be really sure you're prepared for it. Valencia is very warm in the summer, even at 4am, so it shouldn't be too difficult to sleep somewhere in the open air. Try your luck with private accommodation in Buol Buol residents are wise to the bucks they can make from renting out spare rooms in their houses and apartments to travelers coming to their village. Locals gather around the train station in Buol offering their rooms. This is a good option, though there is no guarantee that you'll find anywhere. Don't forget to spend some time in Valencia , the home of Paella , after the fighting is over. Alternatively, try some of the other Festivals in Spain going on around Tomatina.
