La Laguna celebrates the Day of the Dead and All Saints by displaying, once again, musical recitals in all the cemeteries of the municipality which, on the occasion of these dates, will extend their hours due to the large influx of people who attend. They wait in the cemeteries located in the different districts of the municipality.
The mayor of La Laguna, Luis Yeray Gutiérrez, points out the great reception that this musical setting has had in previous years “something that has turned this initiative into a hallmark of the Laguna cemeteries on a day of special roots in the citizens of the municipality”. The councilor responsible for Cemeteries, Cristina Ledesma, also speaks out in this sense, and also points out that these musical recitals will be performed by groups made up of members of the different musical bands that La Laguna hosts.
From Monday, October 28, until Sunday, November 3, the cemeteries of San Luis, San Juan, San Gregorio in Punta del Hidalgo, Valle de Guerra and Tejina, will open uninterruptedly between 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. :00 hours. On October 31 and November 1, the facilities will have special hours from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The different groups will set the scene with music on November 1, in the morning and afternoon, in the different cemeteries.
The times of the masses in the three cemeteries of the Northeast Region (Punta del Hidalgo, Tejina and Valle de Guerra) will be, on November 1, at 5:00 p.m. with a second mass on November 2, at 12:00 p.m. in the Valle de Guerra cemetery.
