Femés's second festival of the year, in honour of the Virgen del Rosario, held in early autumn. It includes a religious service and a traditional romería with locals and visitors in typical Canarian dress, accompanied by folk bands and a folk group. The programme usually adds a dessert contest, card-game tournaments, children's workshops, live music and a friendly gathering in the square.
