The Corpus Chico of León, is celebrated on the Sunday after the day of the celebration of Corpus Christi Sunday. The day dawns with the flowery reveille offered by the Piquete de Ronda of the Royal Brotherhood of La Minerva and La Vera-Cruz through the streets and squares of the San Martín neighbourhood. At the same time, for a few years, in the Plaza Mayor a group of brothers meticulously weaves a floral carpet in which the emblem of said Brotherhood and the coat of arms of the city of León are represented.

Later, a Solemn Eucharist fills its canonical seat, the church of San Martín, starting at 11:00 a.m. with the assistance of the penitential brotherhoods of León, the councilors of the León consistory headed by its mayor, brothers, manolas, first communion children and faithful. Then the traditional Procession of the Corpus Chico begins, headed, after the cross and the candles, by the Eucharistic pendoneta. The procession runs through different streets in the center of León.
