All are welcome at the first Anglican Evensong at St Peter's Basilica on Monday 13 March at 3pm, a celebration of Pope St Gregory the Great.
To enter: With Via della Conciliazione behind you and St.Peter’s Basilica directly in front of you, you should walk along the colonnade on the left side of the Basilica until you reach a check point with Swiss guards. After a quick security check by the Swiss guards, the Vatican gendarmerie will show you the way to La Porta della Preghiera in order to enter the Basilica. Once inside, you should head towards the very front of the church and the Chair of St. Peter (la Cattedra di San Pietro). There will be stewards inside the church to accompany you to your seating. The Vatican Gendarmeria would like to admit people en masse at 2pm, so please aim to be at the Swiss guard check point at 1.45pm.
If you arrive after this time, please take the same route as described above, and say you are going to the Anglican Evensong.
