According to Vatican, HOLY SEE PRESS OFFICE SUMMARY OF BULLETIN, dated April 23rd, 2025
In accordance with ancient custom, for nine consecutive days particular celebrations of the Eucharist will be held in memory of the deceased Roman Pontiff, starting with the funeral Mass.
These celebrations are open to all. However, each day they will involve the participation of a different group, taking into account its links with the Roman Pontiff. This variety of assemblies shows, in a certain way, both the scope of the ministry of the Supreme Pastor and the universality of the Church of Rome (cf. Ordo Exsequiarum Romani Pontificis, nos. 124-125).
* * *
The funeral Mass of the Roman Pontiff Francis, the first day of the Novendiali, will take place on 26 April 2025 at 10.00, on the parvis of Saint Peter’s Basilica.
In the subsequent days, the celebrations of the Novendiali in memory of the late Pope will continue as follows:
2nd day: Sunday 27 April, at 10.30, on the parvis of the Vatican Basilica: employees and faithful of Vatican City State.
