Frequently asked

Where do these Christmas service times come from?
Every time comes from a page that the church, its cathedral or its diocese published. Each time links to that page and shows the date we last checked it. We add a time only after a person checks it against the source.
Why are some churches missing?
Churches publish Christmas times from late November. We add each one when it is published. Until then, the church's own website is the best place to look.
Which cities are covered?
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. For other places, use the church finder near you and check each church's website.
What is a Christmas Vigil Mass?
A Vigil Mass is a Catholic Mass on the evening before a feast day. For Christmas, parishes hold Vigil Masses on the evening of 24 December. A Vigil Mass counts as a Christmas Mass.
Does Midnight Mass start at midnight?
Not always. Many churches hold their "Midnight Mass" or midnight service earlier in the evening of 24 December. The table shows the start time that each church publishes.
