The year 2025 is set to be filled with significant global events, from political upheavals to cultural comebacks and pressing climate challenges.

  1. Trump 2.0: Donald Trump will be inaugurated as the 47th President of the United States on January 20, 2025, after a hard-fought election victory against Kamala Harris. Despite facing legal challenges, Trump's second term will likely shape U.S. politics and its global relationships.

  2. Climate Change: In 2025, there is hope that global greenhouse gas emissions might peak. Signs from China, the world’s largest polluter, suggest emissions could stabilize. However, experts warn that countries must act swiftly to reduce emissions and prevent worsening climate change.

  3. Football Frenzy: The football calendar in 2025 will be packed with high-profile matches, including the expanded 32-team Club World Cup and an extended Champions League season. The upcoming 2026 World Cup will feature 16 more teams, adding to the global football frenzy, with potential consequences for player well-being and tournament logistics.

  4. Kumbh Mela: From January 13 to February, over 400 million people are expected to gather for the Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, India. This UNESCO-recognized Hindu festival draws millions to bathe in the holy rivers for spiritual purification.

  5. Oasis and BTS Comebacks: Fans of iconic bands Oasis and BTS are in for a treat in 2025. Oasis will reunite for a world tour after a 15-year break, while BTS will return after completing their mandatory military service, marking a massive cultural event for South Korea and the K-pop industry.
