How offend do these World Youth Day Events Happen? every 3 years or 2?

They are technically every year. But every other year, they are in the diocese around the world, with a larger celebration in Rome. However, after the 2002 WYD in Toronto, it was announced that the next major WYD would be in three years instead of two, in Germany. This was to avoid conflict with the Athens Summer Olympics in Greece and, frankly, because WYD is getting bigger and bigger. Cologne needed another year to figure out transportation and food distribution, in my opinion.

Or another 10 years.

Sydney is in 3 years as well.... I think better timing would bve 2007, the International Eucharistic Congress is in 2008, in Quebec City, so now I have to decide which to go to... both have the Pope.
