Our pilgrimage to Lourdes is one of the most significant pastoral events in our annual diocesan calendar, with hundreds of people from across our community of faith visiting the Grotto together each year.

Preparations for this summer’s Lourdes Pilgrimage (24-30 July) are well underway, with musicians meeting to rehearse earlier this month, and new pilgrims and new helpers gathering last week.

Music is always a very important part of our pilgrimage week and evokes special memories for pilgrims of all ages. This year’s Lourdes Pilgrimage playlist includes 37 songs and is available now on YouTube - whether you'll be in Lourdes this year, or intend to follow the pilgrimage at home, you can listen to a number of wonderful hymns and songs by clicking on the button below.
