Bringing Catholic Events Together — One Hub for Australia’s Catholic Community

CathEvents is a dedicated online hub for Catholic events across Australia, created to make it easier for individuals, families, parishes, schools, and Catholic organisations to find and share formation and leadership events.

CathEvents.org.au is not affiliated with CathNews.com and while we both serve the Catholic community, we operate independently with the CathEvents focus being on promoting events and formation opportunities across Australia and New Zealand.

Whether you’re looking for a retreat, a leadership workshop, a formation course, a community event, or a theological lecture, CathEvents gathers these opportunities in one easy-to-navigate platform, designed to foster connection, faith, and leadership development across the Church in Australia.

Our Vision

Our vision is for CathEvents to be a vibrant, dynamic hub that supports the mission of the Church through formation, leadership, and community-building events.

We invite all Catholics, organisations, and communities to use CathEvents as a way to connect, grow, and serve together.

A Service to All Catholics

CathEvents has been developed by the Association of Ministerial Public Juridic Persons (AMPJP) as a service to all Catholics and Catholic organisations throughout Australia.

Recognising the need for a central, accessible place to share and promote Catholic events, AMPJP has taken the initiative to create this platform to support formation, leadership, and community life within the Church.

We are also grateful for the generous support and contribution of the Catholic Development Fund (CDF), whose partnership has made this important initiative possible.

Why CathEvents?

Catholics throughout Australia host countless events designed to build faith, foster leadership, and bring people together. However, until now, there has been no single platform where these events can be easily found and shared.

CathEvents fills this gap, offering a free and accessible space for:

• Individuals and families looking for opportunities to grow in faith.
• Parishes and dioceses wishing to promote local or national events.
• Catholic schools, ministries, and organisations offering formation and leadership programs, retreats, and other events.

Through CathEvents, we hope to strengthen connections across the Church and support the mission of Catholic communities everywhere.
