Procesión extraordinaria de la Virgen de Candelaria
Religious festival: a procession or celebration in honour of a saint or a virgin.
In brief
On Sunday, 8 November 2026, in Basílica de Nuestra Señora de Candelaria, Candelaria.
Time: 12:00.
To mark the 200th anniversary of the flood of November 1826, which swept away the original image of the Virgin of Candelaria, the basilica is holding a solemn Mass followed by an exceptional procession of the patron saint of the Canary Islands, outside her usual dates. The ceremony will be presided over by the vicar general of the diocese. The bicentenary also includes an exhibition at the Dominican convent (until 3 February 2027) and talks on 5 and 7 November.
