San Nicolás de Tolentino festivities in Tejina: the Corazonesverified
Festivals & Pilgrimages · Gratis
The three Corazones of Tejina, laden with fruit and bread, are raised in the square. One of the most singular festivities on Tenerife.
Tejina honours San Nicolás de Tolentino with a festivity unlike any other on Tenerife. The village's three neighbourhoods, Calle Arriba, Calle Abajo and El Pico, each build a «corazón»: a wooden structure covered in fruit, bread and flowers, raised in the square and compared with the others.
The rivalry between the three hearts is part of the game, and what each one carries is kept secret until the last moment.
The full programme is published by the festival committee and the La Laguna town hall.
From 8 to 13 September. The central act, the display of the Corazones, takes place on the final day.
