Special Notice on Route Adjustment
The organizers have indicated that due to ongoing construction work on Calle Pagés del Corro in the Triana district, this year’s parade route will have a slight adjustment in that section. The procession will not pass through this street but will be rerouted via Calle San Jacinto and Calle Esperanza de Triana to continue its course. Spectators planning to watch the parade in the Triana district should take note of this change.
Traffic Restrictions and Public Transport Advice
To ensure the parade proceeds safely and smoothly, the Seville City Council will implement temporary traffic restrictions during the event. These measures will be in effect from January 4 to January 7, 2026, primarily affecting areas around the parade’s starting point at the University of Seville (such as Calle Diego de la Barrera) and all streets along the entire parade route.
To facilitate public mobility, the Seville Urban Transport company (Tussam) will increase the frequency of its main radial and cross-town bus routes starting from 15:30 (3:30 PM) on January 5. Additionally, some bus routes will be temporarily diverted due to road closures. The night bus service on the eve of the holiday will also run more frequently as is customary. It is recommended that the public plan their journeys in advance and prioritize using public transport to get to the parade.
