The 98th Cork Eucharistic Procession to mark the feast of Corpus Christi will take
place on Sunday May 26th.  The procession will leave the North Cathedral at 3pm
and make its way through the city to Saints Peter and Paul’s where there will be a
short liturgy and benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. Parish groups are
encouraged to gather at the Cathedral and to process together under their parish
banner. For those who may have mobility issues, you will be able to join the
procession at the river side of the Opera House under a Eucharistic Banner. The
Stewards will facilitate and direct this group to join the Procession. The media
reported that over four thousand people processed in 2023, and it is wonderful to
see that the Eucharistic Procession continues to unite people of faith across Cork
from many different communities and backgrounds. The procession which will
celebrate 100 years in 2026, is a great public witness to our faith in the real presence
of Jesus in the Eucharist. People from Parishes throughout the Diocese and
especially those around the city are strongly encouraged to join us for this important
event for our city and our people of faith united around the Eucharist.
