Whithorn Pilgrimage 2025




Whithorn Pilgrimage 2025

Unfortunately, the weather conditions forecast for the Whithorn Pilgrimage on Sunday 31 August are not safe for Mass to be celebrated on the beach.

Instead, two Masses will be celebrated by Bishop Frank Dougan in the Church of St Martin and St Ninian in Whithorn town at 3 pm and at 4 pm. Those travelling by registered coaches will be allocated a Mass time and information will be shared on the journey.

Those travelling by their own transport can choose to attend either Mass.

We regret the inconvenience, but the safety of those participating is our priority. With these measures in place, the pilgrimage can still go ahead.
