National Pilgrimage to the Shrine of Edward the Confessor
Walk the footsteps of Saint Edward the Confessor at Westminster Abbey
Our annual Pilgrimage day gives you the opportunity to visit the Abbey and experience its beauty in an atmosphere characterised by prayer.
A welcome liturgy is offered on arrival, and pilgrims will be able to pray at the Shrine of St Edward – the king and saint who re-founded the Abbey – and in other spaces set aside in the Abbey.
Priests will be available for the Sacrament of Reconciliation, and a chapel will be set aside for the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament
