How CrossCurrent works

The one central platform for all things UAE YFC - just create an account, join your church, and register for Big Weekend. Your details are saved for every event and won't need re-registering each time.

Which one are you?

Students

You’re a teen in the youth group.

You register for events, your parents verify your registration, and you pay yourself or ask your church to cover your spot.

Big Weekend 2026 registrations are officially open!

Hi! We’re excited to announce that Big Weekend 2026 registrations are OFFICIALLY OPEN!

To sign up, we’ve created a new platform this year that would help us as well as you and your youth groups to sign up for not just BW, but ANY event that we run in the UAE. You can register for an account right now to register for Big Weekend (please read through the tutorial on the homepage to understand how registration works).

Upon registering, you choose your church and once approved by your church, you can sign up for all available events.

  • Youth group directors can manage youth leaders
  • Leaders can manage students
  • Students just have to sign up for events

This process has been put in place to ensure that we can verify every church is represented properly by an actual member of your church. While the chances of false registrations are very minimal, this process makes sure to protect your churches and your groups.

If you require any assistance with registering, please reach out to us on hello@eyu.ae
