Virginia Beach Oceanfront
Immerse yourself in the joy of faith and fellowship at Coastal Virginia’s largest Christian music gathering—SonRise Music Festival—held right at the heart of the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. From the iconic 24th Street Main Stage, worship meets wonder as the Atlantic Ocean shimmers behind every note. Whether you come for the message or the music, you’ll be moved by performances from renowned artists like Ryan Ellis and Kate Stanford, along with powerful insights from special guest speaker Sean Rodriguez, hosted by emcee Shannon Kendrick.
Families can partake in face painting, giveaways, themed tents and a variety of engaging, kid-friendly experiences. The festival culminates with Sunday Worship Service from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.—a perfect close to a weekend of connection and celebration.
