Rome is set to welcome over half a million young Catholics from 146 countries for the weeklong Jubilee of Youth, the largest event of the 2025 Holy Year.
The gathering, taking place from July 28 to August 3, will feature spiritual events, guided tours, and opportunities for young people to pass through the Holy Doors of the Papal Basilicas. Delegations from countries including Korea, Tanzania, Egypt, South Africa, and the United States are participating, with many dioceses encouraging virtual participation for those unable to travel. Organizers describe the Jubilee as a unique chance for young people to celebrate hope, fraternity, and faith in a world marked by conflict.
The event is expected to have a World Youth Day atmosphere, fostering unity and spiritual renewal among the global Catholic youth.
