It should be remembered that the City Council has already confirmed this week that it has been decided not to carry out the traditional and emblematic pilgrimage of San Marcos, one of the most important on the island, although the Government of the Canary Islands has lifted the restrictions due to the pandemic and allows these festivities.

In addition, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., there will be performances by folk groups.
In the program of the festivities, the councilor of the area, Eladia López, highlights that, “although, fortunately, this 2022 presents a hopeful panorama to recover many of our customs safely, the idea of celebrating the pilgrimage has had to be discarded as we know it.” “However, we have opted to take a step beyond the pilgrimage from the balconies that had been encouraged, with the aim of finishing our carts and carts so that they can be exhibited and visited by neighbors and visitors,” she pointed out in this regard.
However, the popular verbena and the magicians’ dance will be held, as well as the Election Gala of the Romera Mayor, on the 22nd at 9:00 p.m., in the Plaza de San Marcos; in addition to children’s activities, dramatized routes, pyrotechnic displays and other activities.
