These are the patron saint festivities of the town of Yaiza, held in honour of the Virgin of Los Remedios, venerated in the 17th-century church rebuilt after the volcanic eruptions. The programme runs for over a week with an opening address, folk festivals, open-air dances, children's events and a romería offering with decorated carts and folk groups that sets off from the football ground. The main day, 8 September, brings the solemn Mass and the procession of the Virgin accompanied by the Municipal Band.
