Gospel Fest 2011 was a huge success with approximately 2500 people attending over the three nights. Thank you to all who supported the event by either attending or supporting Gospel Fest in a practical way. 

We plan to run the event again from the 17th - 19th August 2012 so watch this space for further information. 

Gospel Fest has quickly become one of the largest Gospel music festivals in the UK. It is not built on money, because it’s a free event run on a donation basis – it’s simply an opportunity for folk to have an evening of good ‘craic’, and music with a message. A ‘country in the country’ event which covers artists from a variety of places and an audience with a variety of tastes. We hope that this year there will be something for everyone and a must for every fan of good Gospel music. 

Come on, scratch the dates into your diary and take a chance, as someone said, ‘if we do you no good, we’ll surely do you no harm’, you’ll enjoy it!


‘Music with a message leads to life with a meaning’.
