September 3, 2026 · 1 min read

The Holy Liturgy and closing ceremony of the International Meeting of Orthodox Youth (ITO) from the National Cathedral will be broadcast live by Trinitas TV and can be watched on Youtube and on the Facebook pages of Trinitas TV, Radio Trinitas and the Basilica News Agency.

His Beatitude Father Patriarch Daniel will participate in the service officiated by the hierarchs of the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church.

During the closing ceremony, the torch will be handed over to the next city that will organize the International Meeting of Orthodox Youth.

Access to the faithful inside the National Cathedral will also be allowed to the faithful, within the limits of available seats. Also, the service and closing ceremony of ITO 2026 will be able to be watched on the esplanade of the place of worship, where screens are located.

This year's edition brings together for four days approximately 2,400 young people between the ages of 16 and 35, from Romania, the diaspora and other countries.

The International Meeting of Orthodox Youth was launched in 2014. Previous editions were hosted by Baia Mare, Cluj-Napoca, Bucharest, Iasi, Sibiu, Craiova and Timișoara.

მადლობა ინფორმაციისთვის. კარგია რომ ტორტს გადასცემენ შემდეგ ქალაქს და რომ ეკრანებია ესპლანადზე, ბავშვებთან ერთად რომ წავიდეთ. წელს 2400 ახალგაზრდაა, იმედია ჩვენი ქართველებიც იქნებიან რამდენიმე.

Хорошо, что торчу передают следующему городу и экраны на эспланаде поставили. С двумя дочками-студентками как раз удобно будет посмотреть всей семьёй, если в храм не попадём. Интересно, сколько грузин приехало в этом году, Вахтанг упомянул про своих.

On a good note, the Vakhtang, the cake show and the screens on the esplanade are really family-friendly. This year there are 2400 young people, I hope some of our Georgians will come to share with us what happened next.
