The canonization ceremony will take place on April 27, 2025 in the Vatican, as part of the Jubilee of teenagers.
Carlo Akutis, who died in 2006 at the age of 15 from leukemia, was known for his work in web design and the use of technology to promote Catholic miracles. In 2020, Pope Francis beatified him, and in May 2024, a second miracle attributed to the intercession of Akutis was confirmed, paving the way for canonization.
Dubbed the “Patron Saint of the Internet,” Akutis gained notoriety for his contributions to the creation of websites for religious purposes. His grave in Assisi has become a place of pilgrimage for Catholics from all over the world.
