Since 1977, the Discalced Carmelite community has organized every year in Úbeda a series of conferences and liturgical and artistic events dedicated to Saint John of the Cross.
These days are officially inaugurated on a Saturday, with a brief presentation of the content of the Week and, as a central act, with a musical performance or other scenic arts around the work and poetry of the Saint. From the following Monday to Friday, a cycle of conferences takes place, where great specialists in San Juan de la Cruz, both national and international, take part. The Sanjuanista Week ends with a Eucharist in the church of San Miguel.
