SYDNEY, Australia, July 16 /Christian Newswire/ -- Youth Day is the largest gathering of Catholic youth in the world. Given this significance, Catholic News Agency will be providing the best coverage out of any media outlet. The full array of multimedia resources will be available on our website along with exclusive stories.

In order to keep our readers among the best-informed on the events of the 23rd World Youth Day, CNA will be providing live coverage of the Pope's visit to Australia. The events in the days leading up to the Pope's participation will also be covered by our team on the ground in Sydney.

In addition to a live video stream of all major papal events, CNA's coverage will be multimedia rich. Footage of catecheses, exclusive photos from WYD events and daily video summaries of the news will also be available on our website.

All photographs will be uploaded with a medium resolution so that they can be downloaded for use by other media outlets. Photos and articles are free of charge, but require proper credit to CNA.
