As part of the Holy Year 2025, St. Patrick’s Day takes on a special meaning, bringing together faith and heritage in Montreal. Here are the key events not to be missed:

Green Mass – Sunday, March 16 at 10:00 A.M.

A Green Mass will be celebrated in English at Saint Patrick’s Basilica, with Most Reverend Christian Lépine, Archbishop of Montreal, as Presider and Homilist.

This Catholic feast honors Saint Patrick, the evangelizer of Ireland, whose legacy continues to inspire faith communities worldwide. Since 1765, Montreal has proudly carried on this rich tradition.
