In the spirit of World Youth Day, the Brothers and Sisters of St John host an annual festival for young people aged 16-30, run by young people. During the five days of festivities there are opportunities to pray, play, share and deepen their faith.
The festival takes place at the priory of Saint-Quentin-sur-Indrois (Département 37) in a magnificent natural setting.
The programme includes praise, teaching, workshops and games, not forgetting daily adoration and Mass. It is an opportunity for young people to experience fraternity anchored in Christ.

The Festival of Saint John is organised and run by young ‘servers’ who prepare the festival together in different ‘camps’: music, food, art, technical support, and many others. The festival servers are also responsible for the younger festival goers.
The server camps take place before the festival to prepare for it.
