More than 6,500 guests at a year-end gathering packed Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s 2026 New Year celebration—an evening that combined live news euros performances with a year-in-review presentation tracking developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
More than a countdown, the programme put the focus on the year’s most notable themes: digital reach and online study, facility development and upcoming projects, 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) presented as 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 are watched well beyond the United States.
