Next year, young people from all over the world will gather in Rome to celebrate a special occasion filled with faith, unity, and hope, the Jubilee – Pilgrims of Hope. This is a great opportunity to experience the vibrant diverse life of the Catholic Church, meet fellow pilgrims, and embark on a journey of spiritual renewal.

 

The Dicastery for Evangelisation, the organisers for the Jubilee in Rome next year are offering a number of packages which will cater for all your diverse needs.

 

The Jubilee of Adolescents will be held between the 25th – 27th of April 2025 in Rome. Rome will be welcoming adolescents aged between 12 to 17.

The Jubilee of Young People will be held 28th July – 3rd August 2025 in Rome. Young people between the ages of 18 and 35 are being invited to Rome.

 

We invite you to be a part of these joyous celebrations together with other Maltese pilgrims.



Adolescents

As young believers, the Jubilee is your chance to explore your faith and make lifelong memories with your friends, classmates and family. Throughout the experience you will have the opportunity to discover your faith, receive the sacrament of reconciliation, walk through one of the Holy doors, and other events such as concerts and gatherings in Rome.

Before booking we invite you to consider the following:
  1. There will be no flights organized by Malta Catholic Youth Network for this event. Therefore, you will need to purchase your own flights for your groups.
  2. Transport tickets in the packaged do not apply for airport transfers.
  3. Minors and accompanying adults. Please remember that the Archdiocese of Malta, cannot be held responsible for any minors being taken to Rome. We are only facilitating the ticket purchases. Please be sure to collect the necessary consent forms, and make sure to have enough accompanying adults per minors. We strongly advise you to speak to the Safeguarding Commission to assess any concerns you may have prior to traveling. You can download the official parental consent form from the Vatican; however, we do encourage you to create your own, just in case you should wish to add any other consents.
  4. Lodging mentioned in the packages is listed as parishes and gyms. This would mean that the teenagers and leaders will probably have to sleep on floors, therefore you would need to bring up your own sleeping bag and mats. Since you are responsible for your young people, please make sure that your minors are well protected and that your safeguarding protocols are adhered to.  We also do not have any say on where your lodging will be, it could be close to the centre or on the outside of the city centre. You may also opt to find your own accommodation, if you intend to do so, we encourage you to look into this as soon as possible as prices are already going up.
  5.  We do not know what the ‘10-euro food ticket’ mean. This will be communicated to us at a later stage. However, from past experiences it most probably is pre-prepared food packs form various distributors. However, do consider seeing whether you may need additional food throughout the day, and especially if you would need to cater for any intolerances. Based on past experiences, the places who used to provide food for people with intolerances end up being further away from the areas you may be staying at.  Consider this factor when preparing your final costings.
The official deadline for registration  of Maltese pilgrims to the Jubilee of Adolescents is
15th of January 2025.

Youths

If you’re looking for an opportunity to reconnect with your faith, meet other young Catholics, and immerse yourself in a dynamic, fun, spiritual atmosphere, then we invite you to join the Jubilee of Young people, part of the Jubilee, Pilgrims of Hope celebrations in Rome.

This is more than a holiday with your friends—it’s a chance to grow, reflect, and be inspired to carry the message of the Gospel courageously.
