MUSIC FOR EVERYONE

HopeFest is the only music festival in Minnesota that showcases local artists – from country to jazz, and pop to rock.  They’re our hometown favorites!

Minnesota used to be home to one of the largest Christian music festivals in the country – Joyful Noise – which ended with the COVID-19 pandemic.  In that tradition, HopeFest 2022 will also feature three national Christian artists to provide encouraging and uplifting music to inspire your heart and soul.

Gates open at noon and music begins at 1:30 pm.  Come for the day, or just the evening, or join us for the entire event.   Music for everyone.  HopeFest ends at 10:00 pm.

Join us in the afternoon to see some of your favorite local artists…
