National Catholic Youth Conference (NCYC)
November 19 - November 23
NCYC (National Catholic Youth Conference) is a powerfully unique three-day experience of prayer, community, evangelization, catechesis, service, and empowerment for Catholic teenagers (of high school age) and their adult chaperones.
NCYC is the premier Catholic youth event on a national scale that gathers people from all across America for a life-changing encounter with Christ. The National Federation for Catholic Youth Ministry (NFCYM) sponsors NCYC.
In a distinctly Catholic setting, the National Catholic Youth Conference invites participants to encounter Christ, experience the vibrance of His Church, and be empowered for discipleship during this important season of their lives. Teens at NCYC enjoy national Catholic speakers, live praise & worship music, dozens of breakout sessions on relevant topics, and Mass in a stadium with thousands of their Catholic peers.
NCYC 2025 will be held at Lucas Oil Stadium and the Indianapolis Convention Center in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana on November 19-23, 2025. Preparations for NCYC 2025 have begun!
