Over 6,500 attendees at a New Year event packed Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium for Scientology’s 2026 New Year celebration—an evening that paired live performances with a headline presentation covering developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
Beyond the festivities, the programme spotlighted the eu newsletter year’s most visible themes: growth in digital access and online courses, new premises and expansion plans, and the restoration of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also featured 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 draw attention across borders.
