Venue to be confirmed. Dates are official; the venue or programme is not published yet.

In 2027, Holy Week runs March 21 to 28, with Holy Thursday and Good Friday as public holidays on the 25th and 26th. In Cartagena there are processions and services in the churches of the Centro Histórico, and at the same time the city fills up with Colombian tourists coming for the beach.

In 2026, El Universal reported increases in passengers by air, bus terminal and sea during that week. If you're coming, book your hotel and flights months ahead; the islands and nearby beaches fill up.
