From Feb. 14-16, more than 1,800 youth, young adults, and ministry leaders gathered at the Frisco Convention Center under the theme “Viva Cristo Rey!” to deepen their faith and strengthen their connection to Christ. It marked the largest attendance at a Dallas Catholic Youth Conference since the Diocese of Dallas initiative began in 2012.

FRISCO — Over a thousand youth from the Catholic Diocese of Dallas, plus hundreds of chaperones and volunteers, filled the Embassy Suites by Hilton Dallas Frisco Hotel & Convention Center with the buzz of worship and fellowship during this year’s Dallas Catholic Youth Conference, Feb. 16-18.
More than 1,000 participants converged on the Frisco Convention Center Feb. 17-19 for the annual Dallas Catholic Youth Conference. This year’s three-day conference, hosted by the Diocese of Dallas Office of Youth, Young Adult and Campus Ministries, saw attendance swell by more than 200 as compared to the one held in 2022, which was the first since 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
When hundreds of young Catholics converge on Frisco later this month, it will mark the much-anticipated return of a weekend of fellowship and faith sidelined since 2020 because of the pandemic.
