The celebrations of the Holy Week of Jaén simultaneously offer the most classic representations of the Week of Passion along with others that, because of their rarity and local character, are especially unique in Andalusia. Declared Tourist Interest Festivals, they are overused in Alcalá la Real, Baeza, Linares, Martos, Jaén, Santisteban del Puerto, Torredonjimeno and Úbeda.

In other places, the visitor will have the opportunity to attend live performances, which in the midst of a scenario of incomparable beauty are widely known for their extreme realism. This is the case of Segura de la Sierra, Fuensanta de Martos and Villanueva del Archbishop. Some parades are represented in villages such as Iznatoraf, Alcaudete or Arbuniel (Cambil). In the case of Lahiguera, the so-called "Carrera de los Santos," a peculiar way to carry the parades, takes place in a frenzy race to accelerate the encounter of the images.

In addition, the songs of passion and pregones are other attractions of the celebrations of the Holy Week in Baños de la Encina, Arjonilla, Villanueva de la Reina and Villacarillo. The Easter Eggs Decoration event ("El Pintaocos") is a tradition that takes place on Easter Sunday in those villages founded by Charles III and which were partially occupied by the Central European population.
