Overview

About

During this fun and interactive workshop, you and your group will have the opportunity to interact with other praise bands and artists. You’ll see first hand what a true heart of worship looks like. And you’ll be taught how to be a worshiper both on and off stage!

BTW, the workshop is open for everyone, not just students. Adult groups are welcome to come and learn as well!

After the workshop, everyone will have a great time at the BAND CONTEST, where several bands (who apply in advance) will play and be coached by a panel of expert judges (including Juan DeVevo from Casting Crowns!). Groups who don’t compete are encouraged to watch the contest and learn from the judge’s comments. It will be a fun and helpful time for all!

NOTE: 1. Your group can simply watch the band contest–which takes place immediately after the workshop on July 26–and you can learn from what the coaches/judges say, or 2. if you apply in time, your band can participate in the band contest. (Click on the Contest tab for more information.)

This is one day you don’t want to miss! The people who come will leave fired up, heart-focused and ready to minister! So REGISTER TODAY!
