Never, never, never pay for tickets to Papal events!

Papal Audiences are ALWAYS FREE! — It doesn’t matter if they are in Saint Peter’s Square, in Paul VI Hall, at Castel Gandolfo or anywhere in the world, they are always free.

Papal Masses are ALWAYS FREE! — It doesn’t matter if they are in the Vatican, in Rome or anywhere in the world, they are always free.
