Every night until Christmas Eve, December 24th, a feast is held in a local house. After each posada is held by the breaking of piñatas filled with candy and toys. On the night before Christmas, families often attend Midnight Mass together.

Although the traditional children had to wait until January 6, more families are allowed to open their presents on Christmas Day. However, there are more celebrations to come.
