“I am confident that Ignite will be four days of engaging main sessions and workshops, lifechanging encounters with the Sacraments, dynamic music, and powerful preaching. May the 2023 Ignite Sydney Conference be an opportunity which will bring new hope and life to our community of the Church, and for the World Youth Day pilgrims, may it provide opportunities for them to continue their faith journey here at home.”
- Most Rev Anthony Randazzo DD JCL Bishop of the, Diocese of Broken Bay
"Ignite is one of the best Catholic Youth Conferences Australia has to offer. The conference invites young people to encounter the love of God in a life-changing way. I recommend it to any young person hands down!"
- Fr Chris Eaton, MGL

Brisbane from 21st-24th September at St Laurence’s College, South Brisbane, and

“If you’d have told me that I would go from not knowing what I believe in to having full faith in Jesus after the Ignite Conference, I would have laughed in your face… Attending this conference has completely altered my perspective of God and Church because it gave me something to believe in. I didn’t know I needed the religious journey I’ve begun because of Ignite, and I’m so grateful for it.”
