Capacity & Seat Registration

• For now, Masses will be limited to 25% capacity across the Archdiocese.  
• Because it is impossible to accommodate all our parishioners for Sunday Masses, we are asking parishioners to reserve their seats online before each weekend at our Eventbrite registration website.
• Those who show up without a seat registration will be placed in a standby line and will be seated only if capacity is not met due to “no-shows" or be asked to reserve a seat at another Mass.
• Seat reservation will only apply to Sunday Masses and Saturday Vigil.
• Registrations for each weekend will open the prior Wednesday at 7:00 AM and close at 7:00 PM on Friday.
• You may reserve a seat at our online registration platform: Eventbrite.
• Registration Hot Line: 781-819-3139. You may call to register for a seat over the phone instead of using the internet. Call-in registrations close on Friday at 7:00 PM.
