Parish Pilgrimage to Fatima – September 2026

In brief

The Archdiocese of Birmingham is inviting parishioners to join a pilgrimage to Fatima from Friday, September 11, to Tuesday, September 15, 2026. Father Andrew Franklin from Our Lady of the Wayside in Shirley will lead the group.

The trip costs £1,100 per person and requires a £400 deposit to secure a place. This price covers return flights from Manchester, accommodation at Hotel Steyler, and full board, though drinks are not included. The package also provides airport transfers between Shirley and Manchester and within Portugal, hold luggage, all organized pilgrimage events, and travel insurance.

While in Fatima, participants will attend daily Mass, join the International Rosary and Candlelight Processions, walk the Via Sacra, and visit Aljustrel and Valinhos.
