WYD Madrid 2011: coming to Taizé before or after

Some groups are already planning their journey to the 2011 World Youth Day which will take place in Madrid, between August 15 and 21.

We’re very happy in Taizé to welcome young adults on their way to WYD or in the days after the event. Groups staying on Taizé will take part in the prayer of the community three times a day, in the Bible studies led by the brothers and small group sharing together with other youth journeying to or from Madrid. For details of the program, accommodation and costs, please read carefully the relevant pages in this section of the site.

You are very welcome to come and take part our weekly program, arriving on a Sunday and leaving the following Sunday.

If you can’t stay a whole week, but are interested in stopping a few days in Taizé with your group as part of your WYD pilgrimage, we encourage groups, as far as possible, to stay at least two to three nights, but contact us with your plans and we’ll get back to you.

We are preparing to welcome WYD groups especially for the following dates in 2011:

Sunday 7 to Friday 12 August

Friday 12 to Sunday 14 August

Monday 22 to Thursday 25 August

Thursday 25 to Sunday 28 August

Please pre-register as soon as you can, even if you’re not sure of how many people will be travelling with you for the moment.
