A new block of free tickets to the Pope's July 26 holy mass at Commonwealth Stadium will be released at 10:30 a.m. MT Monday.
If you missed out on getting tickets last week to Pope Francis’ mass in Edmonton later this month, additional tickets are being released on Monday morning.
A new block of free tickets to the July 26 holy mass at Commonwealth Stadium will be released at 10:30 a.m. MT Monday.
The tickets will be available through a Ticketmaster link accessible via the home page of the papal visit. Individuals can order up to six tickets for the open-air mass.
The mass at Commonwealth Stadium starts at 10:15 a.m. on July 26. The facility can accommodate up to 65,000 attendees for a program that officials say will incorporate Indigenous traditions as part of the gathering.
The final block of tickets to the mass will be released on Monday, July 18 at 10:30 a.m. MT.
The first round of tickets were made available online last Wednesday and were snapped up in less than half an hour.
Days later, officials with the Pope’s visit to Canada warned people not to buy tickets from any resale sites.
In the days following the Wednesday release of tickets, several retailers were offering tickets to the mass, in some cases for up to $200 each.
