Steeped in tradition, the event’s roots go back to when St. Augustine’s harbor was filled with fleets of commercial trawlers and the hopes of those who went to sea for a bountiful shrimp season. Blessing of the Fleet is an annual Palm Sunday event, this year occurring on April 2, 2023. After the 11:00 am Palm Sunday Mass, there is a processional through the Plaza de la Constitucion. It is led by the papal leadership of the Cathedral Basilica, the Knights of Columbus, and St. Augustine’s own Royal Family.
