The first cancellation of Semana Santa in 2020 came as a shock to everyone, including myself, because it seemed unimaginable. The following year as we waited for the first Covid vaccine rollout it was cancelled once again and this was the very poignant official poster that year. It could also serve for this year with the entire week’s weather forecast not only rainy but also with storm and wind warnings. That hasn’t stopped a few processions from going out… it’s like living in denial has become a thing. I don’t understand why they would risk damage to these works of art. Even the archbishop has said to the hermandades who were not able to go out this year that THIS should be considered their penance. Whatevs. I’m staying home for the rest of the week.
