Semana Santa

Semana Santa takes on a character of its own in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, especially in Vegueta, which brings together a packed programme of processions and religious events held in its churches, hermitages and in the Cathedral of Santa Ana itself. During the processions of la Burrita, el Santo Encuentro, Los Dolores, las Mantillas, la Magna Interparroquial and las del retiro, brotherhoods and worshippers carry their sacred images through the streets, filling the historic quarter and the surroundings of Triana street with a distinctive atmosphere.

To experience Semana Santa, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria also offers musical events such as the International Bach Festival, as well as concerts held in various churches and cultural venues.

Enjoying Semana Santa in the capital of Gran Canaria also means immersing yourself in its springtime and mild climate, taking advantage of these dates to enjoy the many outdoor leisure options the city offers, discovering its gastronomy, strolling through its streets or exploring walking trails and routes in its natural spaces.
