Jubilee of Youth

Jubilee of Youth

The Jubilee of Youth is an international celebration taking place in Rome from July 28 to August 3. The event invites young people to gather with Pope Leo XIV, providing an opportunity to pray, worship, and celebrate the Catholic faith alongside people from around the world.

Over the seven days, there will be a wide range of activities across the city of Rome to celebrate the Jubilee of Youth, from a welcome Mass in St. Peter's Square on July 29, to pop-up events on July 30 and 31, and concluding with the final two days at Tor Vergata, which will include a celebration and prayer vigil, as well as a Holy Mass with the Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV.

Concert for Hope

As part of the pop-up events taking place across the city of Rome, Mary's Meals will have a stall at the Terrazza del Pincio where we will be putting on a "Concert for Hope" with highly acclaimed Christian artists coming together in aid of Mary’s Meal's on Thursday 31 July from 3pm - 5.30pm. Mary's Meals Youth Ambassadors will also be at the stall all day on Wednesday and Thursday to talk with pilgrims, tourists and locals about the life-changing work of Mary's Meals and how other young people can get involved with our Youth Ambassador Program. 

Come along on and find out how you can get involved in a mission which is helping to feed over 2.6 million children every school day. You can learn more about the event by downloading our flyer on the link below.
