Conclave Elects Pope Leo XIV

The opening of the Loggia of Blessings announces the new Pope Leo XIV and is greeted by a roar from the crowd of over one hundred thousand people gathered at St Peter's. There is then silence to hear the words of Cardinal Protodeacon Dominique Mamberti, who pronounces the Habemus Papam in St Peter's Square, Vatican City, on May 8, 2025.
