The Granadilla de Abona City Council has announced it will provide a free bus service to enable its residents to comfortably attend the mass officiated by Pope Leo XIV in Santa Cruz de Tenerife on June 12.

This initiative aims to ensure that those interested in participating in this significant religious event can do so accessibly and safely, avoiding the transportation difficulties expected in the capital of Tenerife due to the large anticipated crowd.
The measure, as explained by the Council, primarily seeks to encourage citizen participation in an event of international importance, such as the Pontiff's visit to Tenerife.

"The objective is to bring this historic event closer to the population and guarantee equal access for those who wish to attend."

The Citizen Participation department is already planning this special arrangement, which will include defining routes, schedules, departure points, and a pre-registration system to reserve seats. All details will be communicated in the coming weeks through the digital platforms of the Granadilla de Abona City Council.
