Laudato Si’ Pilgrimage AUTUMN
For the 40th anniversary of the Spirit of Assisi
On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the Spirit of Assisi, we have the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the places that witnessed this historic event: the entire human family praying for peace.
From November 2 to 6, 2026, as part of this special anniversary, the Laudato Si’ Center in Assisi is organizing a pilgrimage for you, which will take you to all the Franciscan shrines to savor the interconnected messages of Laudato Si’ and the Canticle of the Creatures.
(registration deadline October 4, 2026)
What shall we do?
Laudato si’ mi Signore, cum tucte le tue creature. To better understand Francis’ life and song, here is an immersive and communal journey through the places that saw the birth of this prayer.
The pilgrimage will begin with a communal gathering on November 2. In the evening, there will be a welcome dinner and free time.
On the other three days, pilgrims will be divided into three groups so that each group can follow the three themes of the pilgrimage over the three days, visit all the Laudato Si’ sites.
Breakfast and dinner will always be shared, while lunch (included in the price) will be a packed lunch.
The itineraries for the three days are as follows:
