Oblates of Mary Immaculate Pilgrimage to Lourdes


The Oblates of Mary Immaculate Pilgrimage to Lourdes 2026 will take place from 13th to the 18th September.

The Missionary Oblates were the first group to organise pilgrimages to Lourdes from Britain and Ireland and have been organising pilgrimages to Lourdes since 1883. Every year pilgrims join us from Ireland, Britain and the Channel Islands. Some 100 Assisted Pilgrims, who require a special level of care and comfort, accompany the other pilgrims and stay in the Accueil Notre Dame.

A detailed religious programme has been organized by Joe Walsh Tours in conjunction with the Missionary Oblates, so pilgrims can have a very special time at the Sanctuary. See available departures below.
