Join us for the experience of a lifetime for the 2025 Jubilee Year of the Catholic Church in Rome. Occurring only once every 25 years, the 27th Jubilee Year in 2025 promises to be a time of grace for thousands of pilgrims and the world's faithful. Pope Francis has named this year’s celebration “Pilgrims of Hope” as a celebration of peace, hope, and love. Visit some of the world’s most iconic and inspiring holy sites for an experience you’ll never forget.
During the Jubilee Year, the Catholic Church offers the possibility of obtaining plenary indulgence for the faithful. The Pope inaugurates the Holy Year with the rite of the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter’s Basilica. After that, the Holy Doors of the other Papal Basilicas are opened and remain open until the end of the Jubilee Year. The completion of the Seven Churches Pilgrimage is one of the highlights of this tour. This is one of the oldest Catholic traditions and foresees the visits of the 4 major Papal basilicas – St Peter’s, St. John Lateran, St. Paul Outside the Walls, and St. Mary Major- as well as the Basilica of St. Lawrence Outside the Walls, the Basilica of the Holy Cross in Jerusalem and the Basilica of St. Sebastian Outside the Walls. Learn about the Catacombs, former underground burial grounds principally used by early Christians and Jews; spend time in prayer in the most significant Catholic places of worship and admire unique and precious works of art inspired by faith.
Cosmos guests enjoy a number of special experiences during the Jubilee Year tour. Participate to the Papal audience and the Sunday Angelus prayer and blessing (if available) in St. Peter Square. See the Holy Stairs (Scala Sancta), which, according to Roman Catholic tradition, were the steps leading to the praetorium of Pontius Pilate in Jerusalem on which Jesus Christ stepped on his way to trial during his Passion. Visit Castel Gandolfo, the summer Papal residence in the Roman countryside featuring beautiful gardens and serene views. Celebrate Mass and share your faith and contagious spirit of communion with your travel companions, who by the end of the tour will also have become new friends.
