VATICAN CITY, JUL 20, 2004 (VIS) - Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 21, the general audience will take place in the Paul VI Hall in the Vatican and not in Castelgandolfo as previously scheduled.
Joaquin Navarro-Valls, director of the Holy See Press Office, indicated that the change is due to increased requests for tickets to the audience. The courtyard in the apostolic palace in Castelgandolfo accommodates only about a thousand people.
"It is possible," said Navarro-Valls, "that the same will be done for the remaining
Wednesdays, since so many people want to participate. The Pope will travel to the Vatican by car."
