Sea, sun and… too much sangria! British students relax at Saloufest

We recently talked about how American students spend their spring break (see link below). Now it's time to look at their peers from Britain. True, the British, in order to get to the sea and the sun, have to go to Spain, namely, to the resort on the Costa Dorada, Salou, familiar to many of our compatriots.

All this is called Saloufest, lasts for three whole weeks in late March - early April and attracts more than 9 thousand British students who, as students should, relax, have fun, drink, rowdy and enjoy life in every possible way.

2. Some people literally have fun until they drop.

3. Those who think that all British women have a bad figure - pay attention to the beauties in striped T-shirts.

4. Women's solidarity - do not leave your girlfriends in trouble!

5. While the rest are laughing and filming the action on their phones.

6. Some get too hot in "hot" company...

7. And others prefer to retire.

8. After an 11-hour party marathon, it's easy to feel like a caveman????

9. “We don't create any trouble, we are very friendly. I don’t understand what the problem is…”, says one of the participants of the festival.

10.

11. The “standard” fun scheme - beach parties during the day, bars and clubs at night.

12.

13. The trip to the festival is, for reasons not entirely clear, being marketed as a "sports tour". Students come by bus, the journey takes 30 hours.

24. Saloufest is a very popular spring break choice for British students.

25. Lectures, exams and the cold British spring behind. And Spain has great weather!

26. You can feel like a ballerina on the beach ...

27. Or make an extravagant "festival" hairstyle.

28. In addition to the beach and bars, many hotels host pool parties for students.

29. But the sea is still better ...

30. These weeks the beach is literally teeming with hot young vacationers.

31. The festival is also popular with varsity sports teams.

32. Cooling off in the shower on the beach never hurts.

33. Someone decided to please their friends to find a shortcut to the beach.

34. While some people play sports games ...

35. Others have already stocked up on beer.

36. It’s already difficult to say here - this is sport or love ...

37. And here too.

38. Well, everything seems to be clear here????

39.

40. "Souvenir" from the festival - it is unlikely that these hairstyles will last longer than the holidays in Salou.

41. Recalling the first shots, we can say that the “team in yellow tights” suffered a massive defeat.

42. But, not everything is so bad! The festival is not just a general booze, the participants are united by the idea of fun and creative costumes.

43. We have already seen cavemen, and a nun, and a ballerina. There are also gladiators, superheroes, and just about everyone else.

44.

45. But, again, not everyone manages to stand on their feet.

46. Midnight snacking is sacred. Fast food at night is filled to overflowing.

47. Despite the fact that hotels complain about the refusals of “ordinary” tourists who learn about the congress of thousands of students taking place at that time, youth fun brings a good income to the resort.

48.

50. The festival is held under the vigilant supervision of hundreds of police officers. No arrests have been made this year.

51. And what about local residents and authorities? Of course, they complain, but they are in no hurry to give up the income received during the Saloufest.

52.

53. Red cloaks to the rescue!

54. Mutual assistance among the British is on top.

55.

56.

57. Everyone tries to spend the holidays in such a way that there is no “excruciatingly ashamed of the aimlessly lived years.”

58. In general, if you want a quiet family holiday, do not come to Salou in the spring. Well, and vice versa! ????
