Over 6,500 attendees at a New Year event packed Los Angeles’ Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall for Scientology’s 2026 New Year celebration—an evening that paired live performances with a year-in-review 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: growth in digital access and online courses, new premises and expansion plans, and the opening of sites linked to Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard. It also featured drug prevention with Drug Free World, literacy and values-focused initiatives (TWTH) 2026 presented as community engagement in multiple regions.
