Since its formation by NewSong in 1995, The Winter Jam Tour Spectacular has featured many of the top names in Christian music, including TobyMac, Third Day, Newsboys, Steven Curtis Chapman, Lecrae, Skillet, and more! The tour has outpaced any other tour’s attendance for the past four years.
Winter Jam is an incredible evening of live concerts by the top artists in Christian music, plus worship and ministry, to encourage believers and share the good news with those who have yet to trust Christ.
Presented by Holt International, the tour kicked-off early-January in Charleston, WV and will hit nearly 50 of the country’s top venues, including EagleBank Arena in Washington, D.C.; Atlanta’s Georgia Dome; the BB&T Center in Miami; Smoothie King Center in New Orleans; Houston’s Toyota Center; and St. Louis’ Scottrade Center, among others, before wrapping up April 3 at Freedom Hall in Louisville, KY.
Co-headlining this year’s Winter Jam Tour Spectacular are two fan favorites: GRAMMY® Award-winning duo for KING & COUNTRY and GRAMMY®-nominated singer/songwriter Matthew
West. The tour will also feature Crowder, RED, Sidewalk Prophets, NewSong, KB/Tedashii/Trip Lee, Lauren Daigle, and evangelist Tony Nolan, while the Pre-Jam Party is slated to showcase Stars Go Dim and We Are Messengers.
Eddie Carswell, Winter Jam creator and founding member of NewSong said,
“I am amazed during each Winter Jam how God brings together just the right artists to accomplish His plans. All of the performers announced tonight have a heart for ministry, which is what this tour has been about from the very beginning.”
In addition to Holt International, Winter Jam 2106 sponsors include “God’s Not Dead 2,” Liberty University, Museum of the Bible (presenting the Winter Jam Tour Spectacular Youth Leader Reception), Camp Electric, Premier Vacations & Events, Xtreme Conferences, Texas TransEastern, and Wayne E. Bailey Produce.
Winter Jam 2016 will be held on Sunday, March 20, 2016 at 6:45pm (doors open at 6pm) located in the arena.
