At a press conference held at the Vatican on May 9, 2023, organizers of the Jubilee 2025 presented the schedule of events expected for this year of celebrations. Between the opening of the Holy Door of St. Peter’s Basilica in December 2024 and its closing in December 2025, the Holy See will organize 37 events that will take place over 80 days.
Pope Francis has decided on two annual themes to prepare for 2025:

2024: This year is dedicated to prayer
