Youth Jubilee 2025: 7 useful tips to make the most of your experience in Rome

Backpack on your shoulders, open heart and eyes ready to shine: the Jubilee of Youth 2025 awaits you in Rome!
From July 28th to August 3rd, thousands of young people from all over the world will meet in the Eternal City to share faith, joy and hope. But how can you really prepare to experience this unique event?

Here are our 7 practical (and spiritual) tips to get ready for the Jubilee… and maybe even take some memorable photos!

1. Plan ahead (but leave room for the unexpected!)

Book transportation, accommodation and registration in advance. Check the official Jubilee website for the detailed program.
But remember: the beauty of pilgrimage is also letting yourself be surprised, so don't overload your agenda and follow the rhythm of your heart.

2. Walk light, walk comfortably

In Rome, people walk, and a lot.
Comfortable shoes, a light backpack, a reusable water bottle and maybe an RPET bag like the ones you can find on Jubilee Official Store, designed specifically for walking groups.

Bonus: Bring a small notebook to jot down your thoughts, encounters, and smiles.

3. The official T-shirt is your spiritual passport

Simple, yellow, recognizable: the Youth Jubilee T-shirt is much more than a souvenir.
It is a sign of belonging, a symbol that speaks of you, of your “yes” to this extraordinary time. Wear it from day one and feel part of something bigger.

4. Bring your spirit… but also your poncho!

In summer, Rome can be very hot, but there is no shortage of sudden thunderstorms.
A lightweight poncho can save your day (and your phone). You can also find it among our selected items: useful, compact and ready to use. And then... it also cuts a fine figure in selfies in the rain!

5. Prepare your heart

The Jubilee is also a time to reflect, listen and get involved.
If you like, reread the Gospel according to Luke, pray with the words of Pope Francis, or simply open yourself to listening to the other. Because every encounter can be a small miracle.

6. Travel light, but bring something to share

A small object from your country, a phrase to give as a gift, a gesture of kindness.
The Youth Jubilee is also an exchange of cultures, smiles and ideas. Faith becomes brighter when you share it.

7. Let Rome speak to you

Among the basilicas, the squares, the cobblestones and the fountains… Rome tells. Don't rush too much. Stop to look at the sky between the pines of the Gianicolo, listen to the music of a street artist, have a chat with a group from the other side of the world.
This is pilgrimage: walking outside and inside yourself.
