The Immaculate Conception is being celebrated with an Alborada, wind band, processions, masses, a concert, and a conference.

Early this Wednesday morning, the celebration of the Immaculate Conception was resumed with the traditional Alborada as it was done 97 years ago by the workers of the La Aurora factory. Today, devotees of the Virgin and descendants of the fabriqueños retake this tradition that years later would become the Alborada to San Miguel de Arcangel.

As in the old days, back in 1924, at 5:00 a.m. the sun, the moon, the comet, the 7 cabrillas, the eyes of Saint Lucia, and the 3 crosses, dancing, left the Aurora bridge towards the center of the city, until they arrived at the Concepción temple and later held their solemn mass.

The celebration continues with the entertainment of a wind band during the day, at 1:00 p.m. another mass is scheduled, and for tomorrow another Eucharist at 7:30 a.m., in addition to other activities.

At 12:00 noon, a procession with the Virgin, which will depart from the temple of the Oratorio to the temple of the Immaculate Conception.

At 1:00 p.m. again the celebration of a mass.

At 4:00 p.m. A beautiful concert at Bellas Artes.

And the celebration will conclude at 8:00 p.m. with a conference at the church of the Immaculate Conception.
