The Three Wise Men will distribute over 8,000 kilos of gluten-free sweets in Mijas between the three parades that will pass through the streets of the three urban centres. The procession will be made up of the royal floats, the Christmas entertainment floats, children's entertainment groups, large format entertainment, brass bands and 'batucadas'.  
In addition to the eight tonnes of sugared sweets, the more than 270 children who will take part in the parade will throw 5,000 bags of 'gusanitos', 1,200 candy bars, 2,000 balls, cuddly toys and other goodies. There will also be 5 kilos of sugar-free sweets available, which can be requested from those in charge of the floats.  
According to the Councillor for Festivities, Silvia Marín (PP), Mijas Pueblo's parade is scheduled to begin at 16:30 and at 17:00 the parades of La Cala and Las Lagunas will begin simultaneously.  
Before the parade starts in Mijas Pueblo, the mayoress of the town, Ana Mata (PP), will welcome them at the Town Hall and present them with the key to the city.  
At the end of the parade, their Majesties the Three Wise Men will receive  the children,  to take photos with them and give them the toys that have not yet been distributed. As a final touch, the Mijas Town Hall will invite the residents to hot chocolate and 'roscón de reyes' at the three end stations of the parades: Plaza Virgen de la Peña, in Mijas Pueblo; La Butibamba Park, in La Cala and Maria Zambrano Park, in Las Lagunas.
