World Youth Day Madrid 2011In 2011 Spain will host for the second time a World Youth Day. The first was in 1989 at the historical shrine of Santiago de Compostela and in 2011 it will be held in Madrid.Due to the huge success of World Youth Day, the event will now be held at an interval of every three years.Despite his advanced age of 81, Pope Benedict XVI dropped a strong hint that he expects to be in Madrid in 2011, telling the youth in Sydney, "I look forward to seeing you in three years time." Join millions of other young Catholics from all over the world in an inspiring spiritual celebration of life and faith culminating in an awe-inspiring Mass with the Pope. The Madrid World Youth Day event will be held from 15 - 21 August 2011.
You can for example combine this worldly event with pre or post tours to all kinds of destinations. Why not choose for a pilgrimage including Lourdes or Fatima or perhaps you like to visit Sevilla with its magnificent cathedral. If you have a little bit more time to spend, we recommend the combination of the World Youth Day and a visit of the Vatican and many other highlights of Rome!
