Easter in Villajoyosa

On January 6, 2018April 8, 2023 By viewfromlavilaIn FiestasLeave a comment

Semana Santa or Holy Week is a seriously big event in Spain. The processions of the hooded penitents in Sevilla and other Spanish cities are spectacular celebrations of faith. Here in Villajoyosa, they’re obviously not quite on the same scale, but there are processions in the town every evening in Easter week.
