Gran Romeria Ofrenda y Verbena de Marzagán

The Gran Romería Ofrenda and Verbena, part of the Patronal Festivities of Marzagán in Gran Canaria, is an event that features a popular pilgrimage where participants bring offerings of local products and flowers in a procession to the shrine or place of worship. This act of devotion honors the Virgen de la Peña, the patron saint of the neighborhood, and is accompanied by folk music and traditional dances that enrich the cultural experience. Following the pilgrimage, a verbena is held—an outdoor party with live music, dancing, and social activities. The combination of the pilgrimage and the verbena provides an opportunity for both residents and visitors to engage in a celebration that highlights both religious devotion and the festive spirit of the event.
