launch into bigger adventures
Blaze takes everything up a notch. This action-packed week is designed for 12-15 year olds who want to push themselves, try new things and have the time of their lives. With sailing, raft building, kayaking, archery tag, tunnelling, football and more - we pack as much as possible into every day, all tied together by this year's exciting theme.
There are lots of blaze events on each year, giving more young people the chance to experience the atmosphere at CYE - there's nowhere quite like it. You'll be out on the water, tackling challenges on land and enjoying the freedom to choose your own adventure throughout the week.
Evenings bring a different pace. Gather round the campfire, chill with new friends and hear from inspirational speakers who give relevant, challenging talks about the Gospel. These aren't stuffy sermons, they're honest, thought-provoking messages that connect faith to the real issues you're facing as a young person today. Discussion groups give you space to ask the big questions and dig deeper into what you believe.
Whether you're questioning faith, committed to following Jesus or somewhere in between, Blaze welcomes you exactly as you are. This is where lasting friendships are forged, confidence is built and faith becomes real.
Choose Your Own Adventure
At Blaze, you have the freedom to shape your own week. Want to spend every moment on the water? Go for it. Prefer land-based activities? That works too. Our experienced instructors adapt sessions to suit everyone – from complete beginners to those ready for high-adrenaline challenges. It's your camp, your choices.
Real Conversations About Faith
Every evening features a relaxed talk from a speaker who gets what it's like to be a teenager today. They tackle real questions about God, purpose, identity and living out faith in the modern world. Follow-up discussions in small groups give you space to process, question and share honestly with people who actually listen.
