The Holy Family Pilgrimage Experience offers a six-day journey into Canada's rich Catholic legacy. The itinerary includes pilgrimages to basilicas devoted to the Blessed Mother in Ottawa and Quebec City, along with the internationally renowned shrines of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré near Quebec City, Our Lady of the Cape in Trois-Rivières, and St. Joseph's Oratory in Montreal. These historic churches line the banks of the St. Lawrence River and the Rideau Canal.

When to Sign Up, and When It Happens
Those interested can sign up for updates on the pilgrimage experience now. The pilgrimage runs Sept. 6 to 11, 2027, immediately following the Pan American Confraternity Forum (PAC27), a gathering of Catholic leaders and pilgrims from across the Americas that launches the Road to Jubilee33 in Ottawa from Sept. 2 to 5. Tickets for PAC27 go on sale in September 2026.

What Is the Road to Jubilee33?
The Road to Jubilee33 honours the 2033 extraordinary jubilee, marking two millennia since Christ's Passion, death, and resurrection. The initiative aims to bring the world to Jesus through Mary, showing the unity of the Catholic family under her maternal care and guided by the Holy Family toward Christ.
PAC27 will be held at TD Place Stadium on the banks of the Rideau Canal, and is expected to draw tens of thousands of participants. The venue will be transformed into a sacred space echoing the historic 1947 Marian Congress held on the same site, whose crowning act, according to the Venerable Pope Pius XII, was the consecration of Canada to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. PAC27 is the first of three such gatherings, with a second planned for Labour Day weekend 2030 in the United States and the final Jubilee event in Rome in 2033.
