GLOBAL YOUTH FESTIVAL:
THE MOVEMENT
For brave hearts. For bold minds. For boundless souls.
The Global Youth Festival, envisioned by Gurudev, unites empowered youth across borders to discover purpose, celebrate culture, and ignite the spirit of service and sportsmanship.
With a community across 20+ countries and 170+ cities, contributing 600,000+ volunteer hours and touching millions of lives annually, GYF is where the journey inward begins, and collective change takes root.
Who’s it
for?
The heart that feels fullest when it is emptied in service
The seeker who listens for meaning beneath all the noise
The wanderer who knows the most thrilling trip is the one inward
The dreamer who finds themselves in music, stories, and new experiences
The adventurer who embraces life with courage, grit and a spark that never dims
