They presided over the traditional celebration of the Pascua Militar. This event is deeply rooted in the Spanish military and dates back to 1782 during the reign of Carlos III. The ceremony is held annually on the day of Epiphany at the Royal Palace of Madrid.

It is customary for royal women to wear a full-length skirt for the Pascua Militar ceremony, and today, the Queen of Spain adhered to tradition by wearing a sleek burgundy column skirt, which she first wore in 2019 for the Diplomatic Corps reception (shown below).
On this occasion, she complemented the burgundy column skirt with a color-coordinated Falconeri cashmere sweater, creating a cohesive and elegant ensemble.
Retailing for US$295, the crewneck sweater is crafted from pure ultrafine cashmere, and offers a feather-light feel that keeps you warm without adding bulk, and finished with ribbed trim detailing at the cuffs, hem, and neckline.
During the outdoor parade, she covered up with her black short faux-fur jacket.
The queen carried her burgundy Magrit 'Lea' Clutch, and on her feet were a new pair of Magrit 'Clara' Pumps in Burgundy.

She elevated the ensemble with timeless pearl jewels, wearing the Ansorena diamond and pearl earrings, along with the Joyas de Pasar pearl necklace—a less common jewelry choice for her.
