UK Youth Conference 2026

Booking is now open, and will close on Friday 20 March, 2026.

About the Conference

The Youth Conference is intended for young people over the age of 16. It is an opportunity to find out why the Christian’s is the most serious, but also the happiest life, and to have the opportunity of meeting many young people who hold that belief, from churches across the UK and beyond. Every year, many newcomers find a friendly welcome and feel quickly at ease.

As in previous years, there will be plenty of time for fellowship and free discussion, and the opportunity to put your questions to the panel. We look forward to seeing you there!
