Bajada de la Rama del Juncalillo

The Bajada de La Rama of Juncalillo is one of the most emblematic and eagerly awaited events of the patron saint festivities of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, held in the municipality of Gáldar (Gran Canaria). It is a festive and communal procession in which locals and visitors walk through the streets carrying tree branches to the rhythm of popular music, accompanied by giant puppets, batucadas, and folk bands. Deeply rooted in the town’s identity, this celebration symbolizes a connection with nature, community joy, and the continuation of a tradition that blends religious, agricultural, and cultural elements.
