Canonization of Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II
Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II reigned as popes of the Roman Catholic Church and the sovereigns of Vatican City. Their canonizations were held on 27 April 2014. The decision to canonize was made official by Pope Francis on 5 July 2013 following the recognition of a miracle attributed to the intercession of John Paul II, while John XXIII was canonized for his merits of opening the Second Vatican Council. The date of the canonization was assigned on 30 September 2013.
The Canonization Mass was celebrated by Pope Francis, on 27 April 2014, in St. Peter's Square. About 150 Cardinals and 700 bishops concelebrated the Mass, and at least 500,000 people attended the Mass with an estimated 300,000 others watching from video screens placed around Rome.
