May children attend the Pilgrimage? Will there be any programming for children?
Families with children are most welcome to attend the Pilgrimage, but children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide any childcare services, nor any programming specifically for children. However, the Boston Children’s Museum is within walking distance of the convention center.
May I bring a group from my parish or organization to the Pilgrimage?
Certainly! The minimum number of persons to constitute a group is 10. In addition to the discounts offered on the Pilgrimage fees, we are pleased to offer one free ticket for every 10 paid. Groups of 11 may register online. Please contact us for information on registering larger groups or youth groups.

Yes. The Solemn Closing Mass on Sunday is open to all. New England residents who are not able to attend the full Pilgrimage are encouraged to join us for this Mass.
Will I be able to meet Fr. Peter Cameron, O.P., and Fr. Romanus Cessario, O.P., at the Pilgrimage?
Our priest editors, Fr. Cameron and Fr. Cessario, are both attending and speaking at the Pilgrimage. Please see the Pilgrimage program for more information. They look forward to meeting as many attendees as possible.
