The Summorum Pontificum pilgrimage in Rome is a great event. I hope to go as long as they are held.
There is now a video documentary of last year’s experience with English subtitles. HERE
There are high quality views of some of the liturgical events and interviews with participants.

A note to the organizers: you might include clerics from the other side of the Atlantic in your plans.

May God Bless you Father Z for showing this beautiful pilgrimage to us. The buildings, music and Mass meld into an overpowering mix of holiness. I did recognize Father Z in some images.
I can hardly believe my luck at being able to attend parts of the 2012 and 2014 pilgrimages. In 2014 I missed the main St. Peter’s Mass by Cdl. Burke as I was on business but my wife experienced it. One thing that struck me that the masses at Sta. Trinitá Dei Pellegrini and Gesù é María were superb but the attendance modest. My impression was that here in our remote Southern California we are doing a lot for the Latin Mass. Perhaps an unlikely place to keep the Faith, but this country of ours is full of pleasant surprises.
My advice to the reader would be that if at all possible try to attend this historic pilgrimage while it is still allowed.
