A year-end crowd of more than 6,500 guests gathered at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s New Year’s Celebration 2026—an evening that paired live performances with a headline presentation covering developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
Not just a midnight celebration, the programme spotlighted the year’s most visible eu newsroom rapid themes: digital reach and online study, new premises and expansion plans, and the opening of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also touched on 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 takes stock of its year—and why developments in digital access, facilities and community programmes draw attention across borders.
