BWAHAHA! Pope Leo's POPE-A-PALOOZA on JUNE 14 is gonna kick Needy Amin's Birthday Bash right in the NUTS. [View all]

Though Pope Leo XIV is on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, the pontiff’s supporters will get to hear from him at a Mass and celebration of his election next month at Rate Field.

Pope Leo will offer a “special video message to the young people of the world,” at the event, which is scheduled for June 14 at 333 W. 35th St., home of the White Sox, the Archdiocese of Chicago announced.

The “once-in-a-lifetime celebration” will include music, film, in-person testimonials and prayer, the archdiocese said. A Catholic Mass will be celebrated after the program.

Gates will open for the event at 12:30 p.m., with the celebration taking place at 2:30 p.m. and the Mass beginning at 4 p.m., the archdiocese said. More information on the event will come later.
