CAPAS, TARLAC – August 11, 2026—At a time when happiness eludes many, Jehovah’s Witnesses are inviting the public to attend their annual global convention series with the theme “Eternal Happiness.”
The Witnesses are one of the largest non-profit convention organizers in the world, and this year they will return to the New Clark City Athletics Stadium in Capas, Tarlac with a free, three-day program that explores how everlasting happiness can be achieved through spirituality founded on practical Bible principles.
“Who doesn’t want to be happy?” said Mr. James Morales, national spokesman for Jehovah’s Witnesses. “This year’s convention theme discusses how to be happy and how to remain happy. All in attendance will discover the real joy that comes from a solid hope for the future.”
The timely event will draw more than 500,000 attendees to different locations across the country over the course of 15 weekends, beginning June 5-7, 2026.
“Filipinos are known for their resilience. But with the economic challenges we’re now facing, it’s not always easy to keep that mindset,” according to Mr. Morales, “that’s why this convention, with its focus on happiness, can really help us—reminding us how to enjoy life and hold on to our faith in God, even during difficult times.”
Additionally, the same program will be presented at 19 international conventions throughout the year. These large-scale events will be hosted in countries such as Portugal, South Africa, and Philippines and will welcome thousands of delegates from all over the world.
Along with Bible-based videos and interviews, the “Eternal Happiness” convention will present intriguing discourses with topics such as:
- Abundant Happiness Forever — Is It Realistic?
- Why Are You Anxious?
- Have You Discovered the Treasure?
The much-anticipated Episodes 4, 5, and 6 of “The Good News According to Jesus” will debut on consecutive days of the convention. The 18-episode video series is an accurate depiction of the life and ministry of Jesus Christ and is based solely on the Gospel accounts. Episode 1 was released during the 2024 conventions and Episodes 2 and 3 in 2025. The Saturday program also includes a baptism.
Last year, Jehovah’s Witnesses hosted over 6,000 conventions in over 500 languages with the theme “Pure Worship.” This included 19 international conventions held in 13 countries. Over 12 million people attended.
