More than 6,500 guests at a year-end gathering packed Los Angeles’ historic Shrine Auditorium 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.
More than a countdown, the programme brought together the year’s most talked-about themes: growth in digital access and online courses, new facilities and planning for future openings, 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 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 can social programs be followed from Brussels to beyond.
