The feast of Our Lady of Manaoag is on the third Wednesday after Easter. It also celebrates the universal feast day of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary every first Sunday of October.
Every year, thousands of pilgrims continue to flock to the Manaoag Shrine. The 4 a.m. procession and dawn rosary every first Saturday before the 5 a.m. Mass is well-attended by pilgrims mostly from Metro Manila and from Regions I (Ilocos), II (Cagayan Valley), and III (Central Luzon). There are staunch devotees coming from Metro Manila who remarkably hear Mass every week.
The blessing of religious articles and vehicles is performed at the back of the church grounds after every Mass. Holy water is dispensed free to those with receptacles ready. Masses for petitions and thanksgiving may be offered during the regular schedule, while Masses for the dead may be offered on any Friday.
