Two days under the big sky

Worship where the prairie meets the sky

Wild Hope is a two-day Christian music festival in the heart of North Dakota. Bring the whole family, your youth group, and your lawn chairs. We gather for nationally touring artists, local worship teams, a Sunday morning community worship service, and long late-summer evenings under the big prairie sky.

One stage

Every artist plays the same stage, so you never have to choose between sets. Regional worship bands and church youth teams open each day.

Free to attend

General admission is free for everyone, so bring the whole family. There's a Kids Zone with inflatable games for the kids.

Community worship

Sunday at 10 AM, everyone gathers for a community worship service before the afternoon sets.
