LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Aug. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Amplify presented by Pulse Evangelism, the country’s largest free Christian music festival, was a resounding success drawing a record number of attendees for an unforgettable experience. Over 70,000 people from around the state and across the country attended the festival this year over two days, with 1,701 people responding to the Gospel presentation. 

Amplify was held just outside of Little Rock in Benton and was led by global evangelist, Founder and President of Pulse Evangelism, Nick Hall. The lineup featured top Christian artists including Grammy-nominated band Skillet, hop-hop artist KB, Crowder, Jeremy Camp, Anne Wilson, Colton Dixon, Blessing Offor, Ben Fuller, Unspoken, Salt City Worship and Tru-Serva. 

This year, Hall also led the crowd in a powerful and special rendition of “Amazing Grace,” creating an emotional moment of unity. Notes of the timeless hymn filled the air touching hearts and igniting a renewed commitment to faith. Many were reminded of the power of God’s grace and the strength found in coming together to celebrate His love. The rendition will be featured in a future Anthem of Grace broadcast, similar to the most recent Good Friday broadcast that reached millions globally.  

“It was an unbelievably moving experience to be surrounded by thousands of believers worshiping Jesus together,” said Hall. “The atmosphere was electric with incredible performances, and it was deeply moving to see so many people connect with the Gospel in a profound way.” 

In addition to the powerful music and messages, the family-friendly event included kid zones, exciting prizes, giveaways and local food vendors ensuring a memorable time for everyone. For those eager to deepen their faith, Amplify offered six breakout sessions at the nearby River Center through its Make Jesus Known training. These sessions provided practical tools for evangelism and early-access wristbands.

“As we continue to pursue our goal of making Jesus known, we are reminded of the transformative power of reaching people right where they are,” said Josh Turner, co-founder of Amplify. “This year’s festival exceeded our expectations, and we’ve heard countless stories of personal transformation, renewed faith and healing to broken relationships.”

Since its inception in 2012, Amplify has grown into the country’s largest free Christian music festival, dedicated to glorifying God and creating space for worship, evangelism and transformative experiences for the public.
