Two Inspiring Ireland Pilgrimages

For years the Emerald Isle’s iconic sites and diverse and stunning scenery have made Ireland a favorite pilgrimage destination for our travelers.

Our two exciting programs encompass the entire island, including Knock Shrine, where the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared in 1879, and must-see sights like the amazing “Ring of Kerry” in the Republic of Ireland and the rugged Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland.

On your Irish pilgrimage experience you’ll stroll through Ireland’s 6,000-year history, discover lush green landscapes, charming country villages, lively capitals like Belfast and Dublin, and enjoy the friendly locals.

Knock Shrine

Ireland’s Knock Shrine, located in County Mayo, attracts 1.5 million pilgrims annually. The Blessed Mother, St. Joseph and St. John the Evangelist appeared at the south gable of Knock Parish Church on August 21, 1879. Fifteen villagers witnessed the apparition and since then Knock has become an internationally known Marian Shrine.

Pope John Paul II made a pilgrimage to Knock in 1979 to commemorate the centennial of the apparition, and inspired even deeper devotion to the shrine.

A typical pilgrimage to the Shrine includes a visit to the Blessed Sacrament Chapel and an opportunity to pray to Our Lady of Knock.
