The Pope will be visiting the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg on 26 September 2024 and ENEX is gearing-up to cover the event.  His Holiness Pope Francis, who will turn 88 in December, will be greeted at Findel Airport by His Royal Highness Grand Duke Henri, Her Highness Maria Teresa and Prime Minister Luc Frieden. During his visit Pope Francis will meet with the national authorities and civil society representatives at the Cercle Cite in the centre of the city where he will deliver a speech.  He will also meet members of the Catholic community at the Cathedral of Notre-Dame.  A tour of the city centre will follow in the Pope-Mobile. A full schedule of the event is included below. ENEX will be rebroadcasting all parts of the visit that are allowed to be covered live and supplying satellite services.  Nicoletta Pispisa, Head of ENEX Special Events said: ‘’We’ve never had a Papal visit to Luxembourg in my time at ENEX and there is always a lot of interest, particularly from our Latin American partners, in the Pope’s overseas events.’’
