Candelaria (or Candelária) may refer to:
Candelaria (Misiones) is a village and municipality in Misiones Province in north-eastern Argentina. Historically, the ownership of Candelaria was heavily disputed between Argentina and Paraguay. The Paraguayans abandoned it in 1815, but returned in 1821. By 1838, the surrounding area had been heavily fortified by the Paraguayans. Candelaria was returned to Argentina in 1870, following the defeat of Paraguay in the Paraguayan War.
Candelária is a civil parish located on the western coast of the island of Pico, in the municipality of Madalena in the Azores. The population in 2011 was 822, in an area of 29.70 km².
This was the birthplace of the late cardinal José da Costa Nunes.
Linked by the Regional E.R.1-1ª roadway to the parishes of Criação Velha (to the north) and São Caetano (to the southeast), the parish is primarily a coastal agricultural community. From the coast, for about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi), the parish comprises cultivatable lands and settlements, which starts sloping into higher altitudes, reaching its extreme at Ponta do Pico; the parish is basically a pie-shaped wedge, with 8.6 kilometres (5.3 mi) at its extreme, along the coast. Settled areas are divided equally between hedge-row-divided parcels and forested patches of land, with scrub and natural vegetation occupying higher altitudes.
In addition to central Candelária (which also encompasses the communities of Biscoitos, Alto and Eira) there are smaller hamlets within the borders that follow the regional roadway, such as: Monte, Mirateca and Campo Raso.

Yo tenía mi Candelaria (Bis)
Con ella me divertía
Se fue y me dejo llorando
Ay, adiós Candelaria mía
Candelaria, Candelaria, Candelaria vida mía (Bis)
Mi Cande me olvido a mí (Bis)
Pensando en que me moría
Ahora que a vuelto a vení'
Yo estoy vivo todavía
Candelaria, Candelaria, Candelaria vida mía (Bis)
Yo conozco a esa mujer (Bis)
Que tiene un cuerpo divino
Maldito sea mi destino
No me supo comprender
Candelaria, Candelaria, Candelaria vida mía (Bis)
Yo nunca podré olvidar (Bis)
Esta mujer consentida
Que tiene mi alma batida
Porque no me supo amar
Candelaria, Candelaria, Candelaria vida mía (Bis)
