Lo ha annunciato stamane papa Leone XIV all'udienza generale del mercoledì
www.acistampa.comHere’s what I can tell you about the latest news on Dia del Niño (Giornata Mondiale dei Bambini) 2026.
- The Vatican announced that the second World Day of Children (Giornata Mondiale dei Bambini) is planned for Rome, September 25–27, 2026. This event will be hosted by the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life and is described as a time of gathering, prayer, and celebration for children from around the world.[3][5]
- The announcement was made by Pope Leone XIV during a general audience in late 2025, confirming the Rome host city and the 2026 dates; a flag with the official logo for the 2026 edition was presented by a child from Gaza alongside Father Enzo Fortunato.[1][3]
- Related Vatican communications emphasize the aim of the day to highlight children’s rights, listen to their needs, and combat violence and discrimination against children worldwide; official information from the Dicastery’s communications channels (and affiliated Vatican laity and family life sources) reiterates these themes and the 2026 scheduling.[5][9]
