| Puno | festival of the Virgin of Candelaria Posted: Fri January 4, 2008 11:05 AM UTC
Hi there!
I really want to get to Puno for the festival of the Virgin of Candelaria on February 2nd but can anyone tell me what time the main procession takes place and if I were to miss it is there plenty of other events of this festival to see (and which days are best?) Many thanks x |

Not by one bit will you miss it, the celebrations go from the 2 till the 15, i dont know the exact time of the main parade but it goes for most of the night and the days to follow are not less spectacular, Once you get to Lima you can pick up the actual schedule at the airport's promperu (the tourist booth), the website only has the last years schedule

I'll be in Peru until the 3rd. Will I be able to see celebrations in Lima?

No, sorry, only in Puno. There are some celebrations (yunzas) in some of the poles organized by Punenos who live in Lima now but is not a proper festival.
