San Cayetano 2026: Mass times, how to get to the sanctuary and all about the pilgrimage of August 7

Every year on August 7th, Argentina celebrates San Cayetano, the patron saint of bread and work, with one of the largest religious gatherings in the country. Thousands of people travel to the sanctuary in the neighborhood of Liniers in Buenos Aires to pray for employment, health, and better opportunities for their families. The event includes various religious ceremonies, blessings, and a traditional pilgrimage. This year’s celebration has the theme 'San Cayetano, here is your people.' Activities begin on August 6th with a cultural festival and include a symbolic 'Pact of Friendship' ceremony where attendees receive yellow ribbons representing protection and spiritual commitment. On August 7th, the main event starts at midnight with the opening of the sanctuary, followed by several masses throughout the day, including the Mass of Workers led by the Archbishop of Buenos Aires. The central mass at 11 AM will be broadcast live online. Two entry options are available to manage the large crowds expected.
