ShineFest 2026
Riverfront Park Lilac Bowl
507 N Howard St, Spokane, WA 99201
Friday, August 7, 2026 - 4pm - 9:45pm
Your Hometown Christian Radio Station has been working hard to bring our listener-appreciation summer Worship in the Park concert back - and we’re pleased to announce ShineFest will return to Spokane's Riverfront park, Friday, August 7th, 2026.
Join Shine 104.9 for an evening of contemporary Christian music featuring artists you hear regularly on the radio. Enjoy food vendors, kid's and family activities, and nonprofit ministry booths, as we gather together to worship in the heart of our community. We recommend bringing water to stay hydrated, and food trucks will be on-site with drinks available for purchase.
We also will be collecting cans of non-perishable food to support local food banks.
ARTIST LINEUP
Featuring performances by Terrian, The Afters, and headliner Colton Dixon, along with other local musicians including Riley Anderson and JUST ADDED: Kutless lead singer, Jon Micah Sumrall!
