Las Posadas on the Plaza

Please join us for the 49th annual candle-lit procession of Las Posadas presented by the Holy Cross Catholic Church of Española, along with Coro Agua de Fria, newly coordinated by Santa Fe Fiesta, Inc.

Cookies and hot apple cider will be served under the Palace of the Governors’ Portal, hosted by the New Mexico History Museum.

Please arrive early to receive your procession candle.

Yurts At Hyde Memorial State Park

Connect with the heart of nature in Hyde Memorial State Park's ponderosa pine mountain forest, where three yurts provide a unique lodging experience that's rooted in an ancient nomadic tradition. Each yurt contains six single beds that can be grouped together in various configurations. Kick back in your outside activity area, with a fire ring, dining table and food safe, to keep the critters away. Vault toilets and water are just a short walk away.
