Overview
- Madrid’s official cabalgata is set for 18:00 from Plaza de San Juan de la Cruz to Cibeles with 12 floats plus the three royal thrones, roughly 2,100 participants, about 1.2 tonnes of candies, reserved accessibility zones and live broadcasts on RTVE and Telemadrid.
- Weather forced targeted changes: Molina de Segura postponed its parade to Tuesday, Cieza and Archena replaced outdoor processions with indoor royal receptions, Torrent moved its event to Tuesday morning, and Murcia city kept its decision under review.
- Big-city programs proceed with large deployments, including Málaga’s 18:00 parade after a formal reception and Jaén’s evening route, alongside extensive candy distributions and traffic-control plans.
- Accessibility and inclusion feature prominently, with Sabadell planning near seven tonnes of celiac-safe candies plus reserved spaces and reduced-volume sections, mirrored by Madrid’s audiodescription and assistive services.
- Regional variety endures, from maritime arrivals in Bueu and Gijón to Vigo’s double parade and the cross-border Tui–Valença procession, while A Coruña schedules a 17:30 start with about 1,200 participants and 7.5 tonnes of soft gluten-free candies despite stormy forecasts.
