Thousands of rose petals flutter into Pantheon on 9 June 2019.
The spectacular tradition of rose petals fluttering down through the
oculus of the Pantheon is scheduled on
Sunday 9 June following 10.30 Mass for the Feast of
Pentecost.
The ancient ceremony involves fire-fighters dropping
tens of thousands of rose petals 43 metres into the interior of the
Pantheon, symbolising the Holy Spirit’s descent to Earth.
Due to its popularity, those interested in witnessing the event should begin
queuing several hours in advance, as entry normally ceases once the crowd reaches capacity.
