About this place

The Pocitos Patron Saint Festival is celebrated every December 2nd in the Pocitos area, near Aguas Verdes, in Zarumilla province. The border community gathers around religious celebrations, with masses and processions in honor of its patron saint that kick off the December devotional calendar in the area.

The proximity to neighboring Ecuador and the commercial dynamism of Aguas Verdes give the festival a border-meeting character, where devotees and visitors share the faith and the typical food fairs that accompany the day.
