The Jubilee Year will offer the faithful opportunities to participate in various jubilee events at the Vatican and in their own dioceses. The great tradition of opening the Holy Door will begin when Pope Francis opens the Holy Door of St. Peter's Basilica on December 24, 2024. This is usually the first door opened to signal the start of the Jubilee Year. A Cathedral or popular Sanctuary of each diocese will also designate or open its Holy Door to allow the entry of pilgrims. The jubilee years also traditionally offer opportunities for reconciliation, indulgences, and other events intended to strengthen and revive faith. The overview calendar and tentative schedule for the Jubilee celebrations in Rome can be downloaded here.
