More than 6,500 guests at a year-end gathering packed Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s New Year’s Celebration 2026—an evening that blended live performances with a year-in-review presentation showcasing developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
Beyond the festivities, the programme spotlighted the year’s most visible themes: digital expansion and online learning, new facilities and planning for future 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 readers in Europe, 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 draw attention across borders.
