ROMERÍA In Spain romerías are annual religious pilgrimages to chapels and shrines associated with particular saints or miracles of the Virgin. The pilgrims, called romeros, make their way on foot to the particular holy site, often covering long distances, and make offerings. The day's festivities often include sports fixtures, fireworks and traditional music and dancing. Some romerías are large-scale events, one of the best known being the Romería de la Virgen del Rocío at Huelva in Andalusia, which involves spectacular processions of pilgrims in traditional Andalusian dress, some on horseback and some in brilliantly decorated wagons.

ROMERÍA

Many towns in Spain and Latin America maintain the Christian tradition of going on a romería. This is a pilgrimage to a rural chapel to honour the Virgin Mary or a patron saint. Some of these churches are on sites used by pre-Christian worshippers. People may walk for many miles, praying to the Virgin or saint for a special favour, showing gratitude for a previous one or praying for healing. The pilgrimages are often festive occasions where music and food play a key role.
