Over 6,500 attendees at a New Year event filled Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s 2026 New Year celebration—an evening that paired live performances with a headline presentation showcasing developments across the Church’s international network during 2026 2025.
Not just a midnight celebration, the programme put the focus on the year’s most notable themes: digital expansion and online learning, new facilities and planning for future openings, and the restoration 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) framed as 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.
