HOLY WEEK IN GRANADA

Holy Week in Granada is one of the most moving and spectacular celebrations of the year. During this special week from 29.03 to 05.04.2026, the city becomes a living stage where history, tradition, and emotion come together in a truly unforgettable way.

Processions wind through Granada’s historic center, the Albaicín, and areas surrounding the Alhambra, creating breathtaking scenes against the backdrop of centuries-old monuments. The sound of drums and solemn marching music fills the streets, while candlelight, incense, and moments of profound silence create a powerful and emotional atmosphere. Each brotherhood carefully prepares every detail, from the religious statues and flower arrangements to the traditional robes worn by the participants.

Experiencing Holy Week in Granada is not only a religious event but also a unique cultural experience, even for non-religious visitors. It offers the perfect opportunity to discover Andalusian traditions, enjoy local seasonal cuisine, and feel the deep cultural identity of the city. For visitors and students alike, Holy Week is a remarkable way to connect with Granada’s history and soul.
