5000 on 5th: Welcome for Pope Benedict XVI in front of St. Patrick's Cathedral - Saturday April 19th, 2008 
 

Thank you for your interest in obtaining tickets to welcome the Holy Father on 5th Avenue. The response has been amazing! Unfortunately, all of the tickets have been allotted.

However, there is another opportunity for you to greet the Holy Father and receive his blessing. On Saturday, April 19th he will be traveling in the popemobile up 5th Avenue from the area of St. Patrick's Cathedral to 72nd Street at 1:15 pm. No tickets are necessary for this event.

We suggest that you arrive early to obtain a good spot along the popemobile route.
