The story

Domingo de Corso Oruro in Oruro

Domingo de Corso is the Sunday parade of Carnaval de Oruro, following Saturday's Gran Peregrinacion hacia el Socavon. More than 48 dance groups perform 18 distinct dances, including Diablada, Morenada and Caporales, across the carnival's multi-day ritual that ends at the Santuario del Socavon, part of a celebration drawing up to 400,000 visitors annually as Bolivia's most-visited cultural event.

Each year, the Sunday after Oruro's Gran Peregrinacion hacia el Socavon belongs to Domingo de Corso, the parade day when the full breadth of the carnival's dance tradition is put on display.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

What sets Domingo de Corso apart within the wider carnival is its sheer choreographic range: more than 48 dance groups take part, performing across 18 distinct dance forms rather than a single signature routine, so Diablada's devils share the day with Morenada's slow, heavy steps and Caporales' faster footwork

02

The mystery stays covered

Coming the day after the Gran Peregrinacion hacia el Socavon, it functions as the carnival's most concentrated display of dance diversity, all building toward the Santuario del Socavon where the ritual concludes

03

The city starts moving

The scale of the audience underlines its importance: the carnival as a whole draws up to 400,000 visitors annually, making it Bolivia's most-visited cultural event
