Semana Santa, or Holy Week, is one of the most important religious and cultural celebrations in Guatemala and across Latin America. In 2025, Semana Santa will take place from April 13 to April 19, with major celebrations happening on Good Friday, April 18.
 

This sacred time is marked by lively street parades, traditional alfombras, and religious devotion. Families gather to honor their faith, share meals, and take part in age-old traditions. But for many Guatemalans living in the United States, being far from home during Semana Santa can be difficult.
