Overview
- Father Guilherme Peixoto, a Portuguese priest and DJ, played a free electronic set in Plaza de Mayo on Saturday honoring Pope Francis a year after his death.
- Media reports put attendance at about 120,000 people, while government figures reached up to 250,000, highlighting the event’s scale.
- The show mixed techno beats with prayers, church bells, and recorded lines from Francis, and it streamed live so people outside Buenos Aires could watch.
- Archbishop Jorge García Cuerva joined by video and on stage, telling the crowd that Francis remains present when people live out his teachings.
- Organized by Asociación Miserando in Argentina’s civic heart, the tribute won broad public enthusiasm and drew reservations from some clergy over its club‑style evangelization.
