What is World Youth Day?
World Youth Day (WYD) is a worldwide encounter with the Pope which is typically celebrated every three years in a different country. Pope John Paul II announced the institution of World Youth Day in December, 1985. The most recent WYD was celebrated in Lisbon, Portugal in 2023 and this next World Youth Day will be held in Seoul, South Korea in 2027.
WYD is an opportunity to experience in first person the universality of the Church; to share with the whole world the hope of many young people who want to commit themselves to Christ and others. World Youth Day is a unique way to deepen your faith and grow closer to Christ, by means of prayer and the sacraments, together with thousands of other young people who share your interests and ambitions.
