After a hugely successful 2010 big church day, they have just announced another date for 2011.

This time round will feature even bigger bands yes, David Crowder Band, Newsboys, Chris Tomlin, Tody Mac, Israel Houghton plus long time worship leader Matt Redman.

The main stage artist will appear on during the weekend May of 2011.
