Banners of red cultural participants and chapayecas, made of red satin fabric, in its outline and center (in the form of a cross) have a red ribbon applied in the case of partygoers and yellow for the chapayecas.
The chapayecas use the banners in Lent. The cultural participants in red use it: in the patron saint festivities, and every January 6 inside the temple of each of the eight head towns in the consecration ceremony of the new governors. This flag is positioned on the altar on the left side, next to the Virgen de la Dolorosa and on the right side a banner of blue partygoers, next to the Sacred Heart; at the end of the ceremony both banners are removed. The red cultural participants are known as Banee Betaná (those of the sunset).
