More than 6,500 guests at a year-end gathering filled Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium for Scientology’s New Year’s Celebration 2026—an evening that combined live performances with a headline presentation showcasing developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
More than a countdown, the programme spotlighted the year’s most talked-about themes: growth in digital access and online courses, new premises and expansion plans, and the preservation 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 audiences across 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 can be followed from Brussels to beyond.
