The Red Mass is a traditional gathering of the legal profession to invoke God’s guidance and blessing for the year ahead. The Mass will commence with a procession led by the Hon Justice Simon Steward of the High Court of Australia.

Following Mass, the judiciary, members of the legal profession, staff and their families are invited to join Archbishop Peter A Comensoli for morning tea in the presbytery grounds adjacent to the Cathedral.

Please note: those taking part in the procession should assemble between the Presbytery and the Cathedral by 8.45am. Judges and counsel robe, and medals are worn.

For catering purposes, please RSVP to Kathryn Toll at admin@mcfarlanelegal.com.au
