Overview

• Pilgrims departed from the Santuario de San Cayetano in Liniers for the roughly 60‑kilometre walk to the Basílica de Luján under the slogan “Madre, danos amor para caminar con esperanza.”
• Archbishop Jorge García Cuerva said organizers expect more than one million participants, with the principal Mass scheduled for Sunday at 7:00 a.m. at the basilica.
• The Archdiocese and civic agencies deployed more than 100 assistance posts with 5,500 volunteers, plus hydration points supported by AySA tanker trucks and mobile medical services.
• Authorities implemented road closures and diversions across Morón, Merlo, Ituzaingó, Moreno, General Rodríguez and Luján, and reinforced Sarmiento line services for travel and return.
• Participants cited promises, prayers for health and work, and thanksgiving as motivations for joining the national faith tradition now in its 51st year.
