Rome is set to host the Jubilee of Youth, a monumental weeklong Catholic event expected to draw over half a million young people from 146 countries between July 28 and August 3, 2025. The gathering, part of the Holy Year celebrations, will feature spiritual activities, guided tours, and opportunities for young Catholics to pass through the Holy Doors of the Papal Basilicas.
The event aims to foster hope, fraternity, and peace among youth in a world marked by conflict. Delegations from countries such as South Korea, Egypt, South Africa, and the United States are preparing to participate, with many dioceses encouraging virtual participation for those unable to travel.
The Vatican and the city of Rome are making extensive preparations to accommodate the influx, emphasizing the Jubilee as a unique, once-in-a-lifetime spiritual experience.
