About this event

2026 marks 800 years since the death of St Francis of Assisi and Pope Leo XIV has declared a special Year to commemorate this.

Saturday 3rd October 2026 is exactly 800 years since St Francis died, and the day before his feast day. To mark this a walking pilgrimage is planned in the Diocese of Clifton with two legs:

  • The Bristol leg will start at Clifton Cathedral at 10.30am (9 miles)

  • The Clevedon leg will start at the Franciscan church of the Immaculate Conception in Clevedon at 1pm (6.4 miles)

The two legs will convene at around 4.30pm at the Church of St Francis of Assisi, Nailsea for refreshments and prayer. Those who wish can stay for the 6pm Saturday evening Vigil Mass for the Feast of St Francis.
