The most emotive moments of the procession are at the various stops along the way where songs are sung to the saint and especially when the "momentico" takes place at about 2.00 in front of the Cathedral
The official brass band forms up on one left side while the Txistularis, Clarineros, and the giants and the cabezudos all form in front of the door of the Cathedral while the Maria bell rings out from the Cathedral's bell-towers.
