Get stuck into the Holy Week celebrations in the quaint little town of Monóvar in Alicante.

Each year, thousands of cofrades take part in solemn processions during Semana Santa, Holy Week, transforming the little Alicante town of Monóvar entirely. One of the most powerful moments is the Good Friday Santo Entierro evening procession, culminating in a dramatic reenactment of Christ’s burial - a sight that is sure to leave an impression.

Don’t miss Easter Sunday’s Santo Encuentro, a spectacular event marking the Resurrection, followed by the town’s traditional Easter concert. While you're here, take time to explore Monóvar’s historic streets, castle ruins and local gastronomy. And if you’re a fan of literature, make sure to visit Azorín’s house turned museum, dedicated to the renowned Spanish writer. Already planning your Holy Week adventure?
