Spanish street festivals
In Spanish festivals, it is common to find a procession of gigantes y cabezudos ("giants and big-heads"). These giants are hollow figures, several meters tall, depicting the upper half of the giant with a skirt trailing below. The skirt covers a person who carries the figure on a harness linked to the internal structure, and who acts as a kind of puppeteer, allowing the giant to react to the music and events of the festival.

These giants usually parade in couples of gigante and giganta. The figures usually depict archetypes of the town, such as the bourgeois and the peasant woman, or historical figures of local relevance, such as the founding king and queen.
