St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Midtown Manhattan’s Christmas Eve Midnight Mass ticket lottery is now open for non-parishioners. Cardinal Timothy Dolan is the scheduled principal celebrant.

Due to the overwhelming demand for tickets, an online lottery will fill ticket requests. This process is done online only; no ticket requests will be accepted via the U.S. Postal Service. The lottery application period is open from June 15 through October 1. Applicants will be notified by November 1 if their application is successful. Applying does not guarantee that a request will be fulfilled. There is a two-ticket limit per application.

Active parishioners of St. Patrick’s Cathedral (at least since March 1, 2023) may claim tickets by contacting the development office.

Click here to go to the online lottery form. For more information, contact 646-537-7830 ext. 828, or email tickets@saintpatrickscathedral.org.

You can listen to Cardinal Dolan's homily from this evening’s Mass at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome here.
