In the backpacks you will find:

- The Liturgical and Cultural Agenda (with more than 300 cultural events & catechesis)
- The WYD T-shirt
- A hat to shield you from the August sun
- A fan

The catechism YouCat and the WYD guide can be picked up either at IFEMA or where the catechesis sessions take place.

Together with the backpack, you will also receive your Pilgrim’s Pass, that will identify you for the Organization and will give you free access to the cultural activities, the museums and the monuments of Madrid; as well as Transportation for WYD so you can move throughout the city during your stay in Madrid and your food vouchers (if called for according to your registration).

Shortly we will let you know where you can pick up the “WYD handbook” (which includes the program and useful information for WYD participants).
