Rome is preparing to welcome over half a million young people from 146 countries for the Jubilee of Youth, the largest event of the 2025 Catholic Holy Year.
The weeklong celebration, running from July 28 to August 3, will feature religious events, guided tours, and opportunities for young Catholics to pass through the Holy Doors of the Papal Basilicas. Delegations from countries such as South Korea, Egypt, and the United States are sending thousands of participants, highlighting the event's global significance. The Vatican and local organizers emphasize the Jubilee as a chance to foster hope, fraternity, and peace among youth in a world marked by conflict.
For those unable to attend in person, many events will be livestreamed to ensure worldwide participation.
