As with any underground movement that gains traction on TikTok and Instagram Reels, there is pushback. Traditional Galicians argue that "FU10" is a marketing gimmick invented by tourism boards to attract guiris (foreign tourists) during the off-peak heatwaves.
Local forums are split.
For those looking to experience Galicia in a truly unique way, night crawling offers an adrenaline-fueled adventure. Whether you're exploring the abandoned sites, hiking through the illuminated forests, or navigating through the cobblestone streets of Santiago de Compostela under the starry sky, every step reveals a new mystery.
Santiago de Compostela is famous for the cathedral, but after midnight, the old quarter transforms. The "crawling hot" aspect is literal here: you crawl (walk slowly) through alleyways so narrow that body heat gets trapped. Bars like A Reixa and O Bispo have no air conditioning. The heat is oppressive. That is the point. FU10 believers say, "If you aren't sweating through your linen shirt, you aren't doing it right."
As dusk falls over Galicia, the landscape transforms. The green hills, the rugged coastline, and the dense forests take on a mystical quality, as if the legends of old are about to spring to life. The night here is not just a period of darkness; it's a realm where stories of mythical creatures like the "meigas" (Galician witches) and the "carrilu" (a legendary horse) come alive.

FU10. The Galician night is crawling… and it’s hot. 🔥🌙
No maps. No brakes. Just asphalt, albariño, and bass after midnight.#FU10 #GalicianNight #CrawlingHot #ElectronicGalicia
Is FU10 real? Check the weather apps — they’ll just say “humid, 19°C.” Check the event listings — nothing. But ask the night crawlers of Galicia, and they’ll smile, wipe sweat from their brow, and say: “Esta noite hai FU10” (Tonight there’s FU10).
And then they’ll disappear into the dark, leaving only the hot, crawling silence.

Galicia is known for rain and mist, not heat. But on certain summer nights — and even in October — a bochorno (sultriness) drifts up from the Portuguese south, colliding with the cold Atlantic. The result? A “crawling hot” that feels alive, moving in waves through alleyways and up granite walls.
In the old quarter of Pontevedra, you’ll see people spilling out of tascas with fans in hand, not for fashion but for survival. In Ferrol, night fishermen swear the sargo bite differently during FU10. And in the meigas (witches) folklore of Galicia, such nights are when the boundary between worlds thins — when the Santa Compaña (procession of the dead) might cross your path, or when a loba (she-wolf spirit) watches from the shadows.
