National Catholic Youth Conference
What is NCYC?
The Diocese of Evansville will attend the largest gathering of Catholic youth in the United States again in 2023! The National Catholic Youth Conference will take place in Indianapolis on November 16-18, 2023.
NCYC is a powerfully unique three-day experience of prayer, community, evangelization, catechesis, service, and empowerment for Catholic teenagers (of high school age) and their adult chaperones. NCYC is the premiere Catholic youth event on a national scale that gathers people from all across America for a life-changing encounter with Christ.
The trip has been designed to keep participant costs to a minimum, total cost for 2023 is $400, and will include the conference fee, bus transportation to and from Indianapolis (including all transfers during the weekend), hotel accommodations for 2 nights, daily breakfast, a commemorative trip t-shirt, one group meal (Thursday evening), and pizza each night at the hotel before bed.

Registration Information - 2023 information coming soon!
The first step in registering your parish/school group for NCYC is to complete the Diocesan Reservation Form. This will allow the Office of Youth & Young Adult Ministry to place your youth and adults in the official diocesan group. This does not replace the NFYCM registration that will be completed after you have received your registration forms (see below). The Diocesan Reservation Form is what will be used to determine your group deposit and to ensure that your participants reserve event tickets. Group leaders should click the button below to visit the Diocesan Reservation Form. Updated reservation form for NCYC 2023 coming soon.
NFCYM will exclusively use an online registration system for the National Catholic Youth Conference. The online system is designed to allow data entry to occur at either the parish/school level or by the parish/school leader. The registration link will be posted here when it becomes available.
