Stay tuned for exciting details on how your worship team can join us at the National Mall!

SUMMARY

We are calling the nation to gather in Washington DC on the national mall on October 9-12, 2025.

We are not gathering around celebrity personalities. We are gathering around the presence of Jesus at the center of our nation’s capital. This is a festival around the presence of God and the gospel for a new generation because his presence changes everything!

We will gather in 50 state tents filled with thousands of musicians, worshiping and praying day and night in public. We will gather every evening together for gospel proclamation and commissioning.

On the final day, we will come to an unprecedented communion table the length of the entire national mall to declare Jesus’ reality, and our love for one another to the nation.

This is not just an event. It is a commissioning of a generation to host God’s presence in their region and campus!
