Traslacion 2025 wraps up after nearly 21 hours

Millions of devotees joined the annual procession of the Jesus Nazarene that lasted nearly 21 hours, six hours longer than last year.​

Authorities attributed the delay to the damaged ropes of the carriage caused by intense pulling of devotees near San Sebastian Church.
Police officers helped carry the andas from then on and intervened multiple times to prevent people from climbing onto the carriage before it reached Plaza Miranda.

The crowd caused heavy congestion along Quezon Boulevard, where emergency rescue teams assisted devotees struggling to breathe as they crossed road barriers.​

Despite these challenges, Police Brigadier General Ponce Peñones Jr., deputy director for operations of the National Capital Region Police Office, said the event was “generally peaceful.”​

“Wala tayong reported na any untoward incident except for minor incident ‘yung mga medical emergency na kung saan may nahihimatay. May mga nasugatan sa paa,” PBGen. Peñones said.

The image of the Jesus Nazarene reached the Minor Basilica and National Shrine of Jesus Nazareno in Quiapo, Manila, at around 1:26 a.m. early Friday.
