It is celebrated two weeks after Pentecost Sunday, which concludes the Easter season. It is typically accompanied by a procession. A procession and many flower decorations are also common in Vága. The procession has four stations: four altars decorated with flowers are set up, which the faithful walk around with the priest and the Blessed Sacrament. At the stations, the Gospel is read and the priest gives a blessing to the cardinal points.
