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 Holy Year, taking place from July 28 to August 3. The weeklong gathering will feature religious celebrations, 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 participating, with many dioceses encouraging virtual participation for those unable to travel.
The Vatican and local organizers emphasize the Jubilee as a unique, once-in-a-lifetime spiritual experience for young people worldwide.
