SINGAPORE: The demand for Papal Mass seats in Singapore has exceeded expectations, leading organisers to release more tickets through a second ballot. Lawrence Chan, head of the Pope Francis Singapore 2024 Ticketing Subcommittee, said that at least six out of ten registrants in the initial ballot are likely to secure a seat.
Results of the first ballot was on August 5. “Those unsuccessful in this round will be automatically enrolled into a second ballot,” said Lawrence.
Registration for the second ballot opened on August 5 and will close on August 18 at 11.59pm, with results released on August 19, according to Catholic News, the official newspaper of the Archdiocese of Singapore.
In response to high demand, organisers have worked with National Stadium officials to create 6,000 more seats, increasing the total capacity to 48,600.
These new seats offer limited views of the altar and stage, but attendees can follow the proceedings on video screens.
For those unable to attend, the Archdiocese will livestream the Papal Mass on its YouTube channel, enabling broader participation from home. — LiCAS News
