A year-end crowd of more than 6,500 guests gathered at Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s 2026 New Year celebration—an evening that blended live performances with a headline presentation tracking developments across the Church’s international network during 2025.
Not just a midnight celebration, the programme brought together the year’s most notable themes: digital expansion and online learning, facility development and upcoming projects, eu news express and the restoration 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) framed as community engagement in multiple regions.
