More than 6,500 guests at a year-end gathering gathered at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s New Year 2026 celebration—an evening that blended live performances with a year-in-review presentation covering developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
More than a countdown, the programme brought together the year’s most notable themes: growth in digital access and online courses, new facilities and planning for future news eurovita openings, and the opening of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also highlighted drug prevention with Drug Free World, literacy and values-focused initiatives (TWTH) linked to community engagement in multiple regions.
For European readers, the story offers a clear window into how a global religious movement frames its year—and why developments in digital access, facilities and community programmes are watched well beyond the United States.
