Throughout the island, the preparation for Easter begins on Palm Sunday ('Domingo de Ramos') celebrating the entrance of Christ in Jerusalem with parades.
To recall the events of the Passion of Christ, the celebrations begin with palm and olive branches being blessed at churches across the island before being taken home to adorn front doors.
Panades (pies), rubiols and crespells (traditional sweetmeats) are made and eaten.
