World Youth Day 2027- Seoul, South Korea

What is World Youth Day?
World Youth Day 2027- Seoul, South Korea
World Youth Day (WYD) is a global gathering with the Pope held every few years, bringing together young people from around the world for prayer, celebration, and faith. The last WYD took place in Lisbon, Portugal in August 2023, and the next will be in Seoul, Korea in 2027. Open to all youth (16+), WYD offers a powerful opportunity to encounter Christ, experience the universality of the Church, and grow in faith alongside hundreds of thousands of peers.

The Youth, Young Adult, and Family Ministry Office is excited to announce plans to bring a group of young people and adults to this life-changing World Youth Day pilgrimage. We are partnering with Tour Design to create a meaningful and memorable package that will make this journey unforgettable. To begin forming our diocesan group, Christine Coyle will be hosting two online information sessions: Thursday, October 23rd at 7:30 PM and Sunday, Oct. 26th at 3PM. Both meetings should only last an hour.  You only need to attend one session. Afterward, participants will receive details on registration, forms, deposits, and next steps. Don’t miss this chance to be part of an incredible faith-filled experience!

Age Requirements for WYD 2027"
Participants are encouraged to be at least 18 years old by the time of departure (end of July 2027). The minimum age to attend is 16 at departure, provided that proper adult-to-youth ratios are in place. Parents and or guardians are strongly encouraged to travel with their teens to ensure a safe and meaningful experience.
