Devotees are diligently preparing images of the Blessed Virgin Mary from various parishes across the country near the Manila Cathedral on Sunday, December 3, 2023, in anticipation of the 42nd Intramuros Grand Marian Procession.
Organized annually by the Cofradia De la Inmaculada Conception and the Intramuros Administration, the grand religious procession unfolds every 1st Sunday of December at the Plaza de Roma, situated at the facade of the Manila Cathedral in Intramuros, Manila.
This monumental event stands as the largest and most splendid procession in the country, with over 100 images of the Blessed Virgin Mary participating each year. These revered representations hail from different parishes and families spanning the entire nation.
