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, or your lawn chairs and a blanket. We gather for nationally touring artists, local worship teams, a sunrise prayer service, and long late-summer evenings under the big prairie sky.

2 Stages

The Main Stage for headliners, and the Prairie Stage for regional bands, youth worship teams and acoustic sets.

Free to attend

General admission is free for everyone, so bring the whole family. There's a Kids Zone with crafts, games and a puppet show both afternoons.

Sunrise worship

Sunday begins at dawn with an outdoor worship service. Coffee is on us.
