Pope Leo XIV Procession Watched by 400 MILLION

Pope Leo XIV’s visit to Spain has been a huge success so far.

Not only did 1,2 million people attend the Corpus Christi Procession in person, but now it has emerged that a mind blowing global audience of 400 million people watched the broadcast around the world.

To put that into perspective, that is two and a half times the audience that watched the Super Bowl and over twice the audience of the Champions League Final.

Some numbers shared last night by Rafael Rubio during the briefing:
