The "Parade of Kings and Living Bethlehem of Torregalindo" is an activity that attracts for its color, its uniqueness and its spectacular nature, being a benchmark in the Ribereña Region of Burgos for many years.

More than two hundred people participate in it and it has been held uninterruptedly since 1985 despite the adverse weather on January 5, gathering up to 5,000 people and being considered in 2022 a Festival of Regional Tourist Interest of Castilla y León.

Torregalindo has a natural setting that adapts extraordinarily to the theatrical performance of the Auto de los Reyes Magos, the oldest known Castilian play: the typical stone houses of the area, the arcade of the square, which conditioning becomes a worthy imitation of a portal of Bethlehem, the portico and the impressive Romanesque portal of the church that with an important decorative work, perfectly imitates Herod's palace and, above all, the distribution of the town of Torregalindo on the hillside of a mountain crowned by the ruins of the castle, from where the entourage leaves, which allows the descent of the Three Kings to be seen from a large part of the population, managing to focus the activity with surprising visual results.
