These are unique opportunities to experience moments of reflection and participate in special Holy Year services.
3. Events for youth and families:
• The Jubilee traditionally fosters intergenerational sharing. Special days dedicated to youth include gatherings, catechesis, and group activities. Family-oriented events celebrate the value of community and faith lived within the family.
4. Way of the cross and special processions:

Special processions will also take place along the historic streets of Rome, providing opportunities for prayer in locations rich with religious significance.
5. Closing of the Holy Door:

How to participate in Jubilee events
To attend the main Jubilee events, it’s advisable to keep track of the official calendar published by the Vatican, which will be updated as the Holy Year approaches. Here are some practical tips for stress-free participation:
• Book your spot in advance: some events, particularly those at St. Peter’s Basilica and the other major basilicas, require reservations. Checking the official Jubilee 2025 website in advance ensures a place at the most significant celebrations.
• Register for papal celebrations: all Jubilee events are free to attend but require registration. Visit the official Jubilee 2025 website and download the dedicated app for assistance and practical information on how to register.
