The Vocations Expo is a celebration of the fruit of the Holy Spirit and explores our call to holiness in the states of marriage, priesthood, religious and consecrated life and various lay vocations through the exhibition and witness of Vocations Expo participants.

This exciting element of WYD08 is a key feature of the Youth Festival program which is a vibrant aspect of WYDs that provides opportunities for pilgrims and the general public to participate in events that bring about a sharing of culture and faith in Christ.

The Vocations Expo will operate daily from Tuesday 15 July until Friday 18 July 2008.

The expo is situated in Darling Harbour at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre. With its popular waterfront setting, the venue is close to many WYD08 venues including the Adoration and Reconciliation Centre and within walking distance of major WYD08 events (including the Opening Mass, Papal Arrival and Welcome, Stations of the Cross and outdoor Youth Festival concerts).

With up to 500,000 people expected to attend WYD08 events, the Vocations Expo presents an unparalleled opportunity for congregations and communities to be witnesses to young people from every corner of the globe. Read more.
