The main act whose celebration is the procession, which currently contains two totally different parts: the festive one, in which the Popular Entourage of Barcelona, enlarged as indicated by the protocol, makes a parade through squares and streets of the city center with elements of festive imagery, music and dances.

The other is the Corpus Christi de la Seu procession, which is strictly religious in nature. There are more manifestations of popular culture, such as "The egg as it dances" or the sardanas, which are present in the festive program.
