- Nuestra Señora de la Candelaria de Jaro (English: Our Lady of the Candles; formally: Nuestra Señora de la Purificación y la Candelaria) is a Marian title and image venerated by Filipino Catholics. The image, which is enshrined on the balcony of Jaro Cathedral, is known as the patroness of Jaro District of Iloilo City and the whole of Western Visayas. The devotion to Candelaria of Jaro is derived from the original Virgin of Candelaria (Our Lady of Candles) enshrined in the Basilica of Candelaria in Canarias, Spain. The feast day of Our Lady of the Candles is on Candlemas (2 February), and is celebrated in Iloilo City with a Solemn Pontifical Mass presided by the Archbishop of Jaro. It is the largest Roman Catholic Marian festival in the Philippines after the Peñafrancia Festival of Naga City. Pope John Paul II personally crowned the venerated image on 21 February 1981. It is the first Marian image in Asia crowned by a Pontiff in person. (en)
