I do not know if there are specific Masses for pilgrims in both cities but you are perfectly welcome to join all the regular Masses in all churches.

In Leon, I found the mass at Basilica Isidoro very moving. Pilgrims are brought up to the alter as a group and a blessing is made. After mass, pilgrims are greeted individually by the priest at the back of the alter, sacristy?, and leve vía a side door , passing an ancient part of the original church, normally not accessible to the public. It was pretty special.

Thanks! That is what I'm looking for. In our last Camino I had a very good (and similar experience) at O Cebreiro. I will check it out. Thank you all for the replies!

For Astorga, this website should help: https://www.diocesisastorga.es/actualidad/horario-de-misas . Most (thought not all) will have a pilgrim’s blessing after the Mass, and most will have a stamp too.

I remember we got to Astorga after lunch, and the Cathedral didn’t have a Mass in the afternoon. I remmène praying to be led to a Mass, and what do you know, I stumbled into the church next to the Cathedral (Iglesia de Santa Marta) and Mass was being celebrated! Was so happy .
