On Instagram, the account of the Christmas concert, which was organized for the sixth time, shares images of a satisfied-looking Pope Leo. The 70-year-old prelate happily sang along to the song LOVE by Bublé, as can be seen on a video. The Canadian singer also performed several other songs, including Feeling Good and It’s Beginning to Look a Lot like Christmas.
The Concert for the Poor was first organized in 2015. Of the 8,000 available places, more than 3,000 are reserved for volunteers and the less fortunate, such as the homeless, immigrants and detainees with a special permit. After the concert, these special guests, who have been invited by the Vatican itself, will also be offered an extensive dinner.
