This Wednesday, January 5, the arrival of the Three Wise Men from the East is scheduled in Teguise. And the fact of being the largest municipality on the island, also having the peculiarity of the Chinijo Archipelago, will force their Majesties to ride not only the traditional camel, but also a boat and even a convertible, to reach all the towns in the municipality.

He also points out that "so that the children are entertained, in each Socio-Cultural Center there will be monitors encouraging the children to make the wait faster, and also in each center there are bags with gifts prepared."

The Parade will begin at 12:30 p.m. on the island of La Graciosa and is expected to arrive at 4:15 p.m. in Teseguite, continuing later through El Mojón (4:30 p.m.), Los Valles (4:50 p.m.), Los Cocoteros (5:10 p.m.), Guatiza (5:30 p.m.), Tahíche (6:00 p.m.), Nazaret (6:25 p.m.), La Caleta (7:00 p.m.), Soo (7:20 p.m.), Muñique (7:40 p.m.), Tiagua (8:00 p.m.), Tao (8:20 p.m.), Mozaga (8:40 p.m.) and La Villa (9:00 p.m.).
