Travel tips for visiting Italy during Jubilee


jubilee1

Traveling to Italy during a Jubilee year is a truly unique experience. A Jubilee, also known as a Holy Year, is a special year called by the Pope for Catholics to receive blessings and pardon for their sins. A Jubilee year only happens every 25 years, and pilgrims from all around the world flock to Italy for religious events and ceremonies.

One of the most important Jubilee sites in Italy is Rome, where pilgrims visit St. Peter's Basilica and participate in special masses and ceremonies. The atmosphere in Rome during a Jubilee is incredibly spiritual and uplifting, with millions of people coming together to celebrate their faith.

A great tradition of Jubilee is the of opening the Holy Door. Pope Francis opened the Holy Door of St. Peter's Basilica on Christmas Eve and other holy doors have also been opened at the Rome basilicas of St. John Lateran, St. Mary Major and St. Paul Outside the Walls. Jubilee will conclude with the closing of the same Holy Door on January 6, 2026, the Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord.

Italy has seen a surge in tourism in recent years, but the country expects many more people to visit during the Jubilee year, so prepare for larger-than-normal crowds. Early planning is key because accomodations, tours, and private transfers book quickly, especially in Rome. Working with a travel advisor will allow you to navigate some of the unique challenges of visiting during a Jubilee year to make sure that it is a truly unforgettable travel experience combining spirituality, culture, and history. It's a journey that nourishes the soul and creates lasting memories.
