Williamstown, Ky., August 18, 2020 – The Ark Encounter and Abraham Productions, Inc., announced today a new event that will be the world’s largest Christian music festival, to be held at the Ark Encounter in Williamstown, Ky. (south of Cincinnati), in 2021. The event “40 Days & 40 Nights* of Gospel Music at The Ark” will take place August 2 - September 10, 2021, and will span 40 days with multiple concerts daily, dynamic speakers, and opportunities to experience everything the Ark Encounter has to offer.

“40 Days & 40 Nights of Gospel Music at The Ark” will feature the largest talent roster of any Christian Music Festival in the world with more than 60 artists like The Hoppers, The Isaacs, Booth Brothers, Karen Peck & New River, Triumphant, The Martins, Greater Vision, Brian Free & Assurance, Lynda Randle, Ernie Haase & Signature Sound, Jeff & Sheri Easter, Joseph Habedank, and so many more. In addition, several of the most sought-after national speakers will make appearances during this event to include Dr. Robert Jeffress, Dr. David Jeremiah, Dr. Jerry Vines, Dr. Johnny Hunt, Dr. Tim Hill, Pastor C.T. Townsend, Dr. Barry Clardy, and many others. 

Abraham Productions, Inc., president Ray Flynn states: “We are extremely pleased to partner with the Ark Encounter and their outstanding team to produce ‘The World’s Largest Christian Music Festival.’ This event will give us the potential to reach more than 200,000 people with the blessings, encouragement, and good news of Jesus Christ through music and inspiring messages.” 

During the “40 Days & Nights of Gospel Music at the Ark,” concerts will be held in the mornings at 10 a.m. with the main event at 5 p.m. in the new state-of-the-art Answers Center near the massive ship. Music will also be presented daily in Noah’s Village nearby, and at 2 p.m. there will be opportunities to hear dynamic presentations from Ark founder and CEO Ken Ham and even more gospel music.

Daily admission to the Ark Encounter gives free access to all the concerts and speakers and allows guests to explore the Ark, which at 510 feet long is the largest timber-frame structure in the world. Built according to the dimensions given in the Bible, the Ark features three decks of striking teaching exhibits. Other attractions include the live animal Ararat Ridge Zoo, movies, family playground, ziplines, a new Virtual Reality Experience, family dining at Emzara’s Kitchen, coffee shops, gift shops, and more.

Ken Ham, whose ministry of Answers in Genesis operates the Ark Encounter, declared: “As a big fan of gospel music, I’m thrilled our world-renowned Ark attraction will be hosting this highly ambitious music festival. We expect to welcome visitors from all over the country and even abroad.”

Admission prices, discounts, annual passes, hotel information, and additional details are available at www.40DaysOfGospelMusic.com. Tickets can be purchased through www.arkencounter.comand www.AbrahamProductions.net or by calling toll free Abraham Productions at 888-238-6858 or the Ark Encounter at 855-284-3275.

Abraham Productions, Inc. was founded in 1998 and is one of the largest and most-respected concert production companies in the gospel music industry.

Answers in Genesis is an apologetics (i.e., Bible-defending) ministry based in northern Kentucky, near Cincinnati. The Ark Encounter opened in 2016. Its sister attraction, the Creation Museum (west of the Cincinnati Airport and next to the AiG headquarters), has also become a major family attraction in the Midwest. For more information on the two attractions, visit http://www.creationmuseum.org and http://www.arkencounter.com.

*Note: “40 days and 40 nights” is the well-known phrase from Genesis 7:4 and how long it rained during Noah's Flood.
