The voting desk for 133 cardinals was established ahead of the conclusions inside the sistine chapel.

On Wednesday evening, 133 cardinals will vote under the Dome -shaped ceiling of Michelangelo’s Castine Chapel to elect the 267th Pope of the Catholic Church.

The day starts at 10:00 (09:00 bst) and begins with a mass in St. Peter’s Cathedral. The service to be broadcast will be presided over by Giovanni Battista RE, the dean of 91 -year -old cardinal, who is also a celebrity of the Pope Francis funeral.

In early afternoons, mobile signals in the Vatican territory will be disabled.

16:15 (15:15 BST), 133 Cardinals will gather in Paul chapel and form a procession in Cisina chapel.

They will call the Creator of Drugs, Hymns and Hymns.

Once a hand is placed in a copy of the Gospel in the Sistine Chapel, the Cardinals will pronounce the decisive secrets of the decisive secret that prevents the new pope from sharing the details of how the new pope was elected.

Meditation will open when the last electoral swears. Then, the master Diego Raveli of the Pope’s Celebration will announce the “addition omnes” (“Everybody Out”).

He is one of the three church staff who can stay in the cystine chapel, even though he is not an electoral candidate, even if he is counting the right to vote.

The moment of “Extra Oms” indicates the beginning of the isolation and conclusions of the Cardinals.

The word “Cum Clave” or “Key with Key” is a bit misleading because the words from Latin for “Cum Clave” are no longer submerged inside. Rather, on Tuesday, the Vatican officials closed the entrance of the Apostle Palace. This includes a cystine chapel, which contains the remaining seals that will remain until the end of the procedure. The Swiss guard will also put all the entrance to the chapel on the side.

Cardinals gathered at the Pope Francis funeral at St. Peter Square in the Vatican in April.

Diego Raveli will distribute ballot paper and the Cardinals will soon vote.

Nothing prohibits the pope to be elected as the first vote, but it hasn’t happened for centuries. Austen IVEIGH, a Catholic writer and non -evaluation, says the first vote is very important.

“I will consider cardinals with more than 20 votes,” Iverigh knows that in the first voting, the voting is very scattered and the electorate must focus on the number.

He then added that all other ballots will indicate which cardinals have a cardinal. “It’s almost the same as the political campaign, but it’s not actually competition. It’s an effort to find an agreement.”

If the voting does not calculate one -third of the votes to elect the new pope, the Cardinals returns to the guest house Casa Santa Marta for dinner. In the side job of the voting process, there is an important conversation between the cardinals and the consensus begins to merge in a different name.

According to Italian media, the menu options are generally composed of light dishes provided to the guests of the residence, and the wine is included, but it is insane. The waiter and the kitchen staff are also clarified secretly and cannot be grounded during the conclusion period.

Pope Francis died at the age of 88 on Easter on Monday, 2025.

From Thursday morning, Cardinals will have breakfast between 08:15 (07:15 bst) between 06:30 (05:30 bst) and 07:30 (06:30 bst). Then two votes are held in the morning and lunch and rest. Pope Francis said in his memoirs when he began to signal that a serious agreement began to form around him. He was elected from the first afternoon vote. The last two conclusions were concluded at the end of the second day.

At this stage, there is no way to know if this is a long and short conclusion, but the cardinal knows that drawing the procedure can be interpreted as a sign of inconsistency.

When they discuss, pray, and vote, thousands of faithful people will look at the right side of St. Peter’s Cathedral outside the boarding window of Sisina Chapel.
