What is on

  • Semana Santa (Holy Week) (The week before Easter Sunday — moves yearly)checkThe reason many people come: elaborate sawdust-and-flower street carpets (alfombras) laid overnight and destroyed by hours-long processions carrying huge wooden floats. Hotels book out months ahead and prices rise sharply; the town is at its most crowded and most spectacular.
  • Feast of San Pedro de Betancourt (30 April)checkPilgrims come to the tomb of Hermano Pedro, Guatemala's first saint; the church and square are busy.
