The Pilgrimage of Our Lady of Agonia, recognized as the largest pilgrimage in Portugal, already has dates set for 2025. According to VianaFestas, the event's organizer, the festivities will take place from August 12 to 20, 2025.
In 2024, the pilgrimage took place between August 14th and 22nd, attracting more than a million visitors during the nine days of celebration.
This increase in the duration of festivities has been a trend in recent years, reflecting the growing public attendance and the cultural importance of the event.
