PROCESSION OF THE THREE WISE MEN
On 5 January every year, at 5 p.m., the Three Wise Men arrive precisely at Malaga Port. Once they are situated in their respective carriages, a child, in representation of all children in Malaga, will read an Epiphany letter to the three monarchs. After the reading, the Process will continue its course, which starts at the Paseo del Parque and finishes at the Town Hall building.
Every year, the Magi appear at the traditional Process, which reaches the streets of the city centre. Melchior, Caspar and Balthasar will be accompanied by a dozen carriages, as well as by five music bands and a chorus. As they pass through the city’s main avenues, all the members of the Procession will throw a million and a half sweets at the hundreds of thousands of Malaga people who attend the cortege every year.
To round off the acts, the main principal postal Administration and the Telecommunications centre organise a brilliant festival, with performances by singers, magicians, illusionists and other artists of the city. Following the splendid entry of the Magi, applauded by all the children present at the event, sweets are distributed and toys and games are given as presents.
The category and quality of the acts of the procession in Malaga increases by the year.
