This year Easter comes before Dénia, since the city hosts throughout this week's meeting of the Board of the Brotherhood of Holy Week in the Diocese of Valencia.

The events began last Saturday with the reception of the brothers in the Parish of San Miguel. Sunday Mass, presided over by the Vicar General of the Diocese of Valencia and the opening of the Diocesan exhibition was held in the Municipal House of Culture, and during the week different conferences are happening in the Parish of San Miguel.

Sizes participate in the diocesan procession Dénia

But it will be Saturday when the central act of this meeting will be celebrated, with the great procession that will cross the streets of Dénia in which it is expected that 4.000 members of the 32 participating brotherhoods will participate around XNUMX, that they will take their images to the streets, among which stands out the image of the Holy Blood, which in an extraordinary way will leave the church of the Augustinians to participate in the parade.

The gathering of the brothers will be at 16:15 p.m. in Plaza Jaume I, and at 16:30 p.m. there will be a drumming of the participating bands. Then the Archbishop of Valencia, Carlos Osoro, will greet the parishioners and will begin the procession that will go through the Paseo del saladar, C / Carlos Sentí, C / Marqués de Campo, C / Patricio Ferrándiz and will end in Plaza Jaume I. The procession is scheduled to last around 6 hours.

To this day we have prepared special devices which have been allocated 25 members of the local police, supported by officers of the National Police, Civil Defense volunteers Denia and other neighboring municipalities and Red Cross Dénia.

From noon, traffic will be cut off from Plaza Jaume I towards Montgó, Avenida de Alicante to Plaza Arxiduc Carles, Paseo del Saladar, Carlos Sentí, Marqués de Campo, Diana and Patricio Ferrándiz. Likewise, from early in the morning it will be prohibited to circulate on Juan Chabàs avenue, where the brotherhood meal of the brothers will take place at noon.

The meeting of the Board of Brotherhoods end on Sunday with the solemn Mass of Thanksgiving and the transfer of the image of the Holy Blood Convent of the Augustinians.
