GRACEFEST AV HISTORY

Dating back to August of 2007, GraceFest has become the Antelope Valley’s Premier Music and Message festival. GraceFest reaches out to all people through the universal language of music and the gospel message of salvation through Jesus Christ.

GraceFest is a community event for ALL to enjoy and has grown exponentially in its scope, reach, and popularity. Today’s GraceFest is recognized as a premier evangelistic event among the Christian community thereby uniting local churches, hundreds of volunteers, and Christian artists with the singular goal of proclaiming Jesus Christ.

Another important mission at GraceFest is fundraising for the Kids Charities of the Antelope Valley. Funds raised from the festival proceeds go to numerous local Christian school scholarship programs. The Kids Charities of the AV was founded in 2000 by Ron Emard. Ron is the Managing Partner at Robertson Palmdale Honda in Palmdale and Dealer Principal at Antelope Valley Harley Davidson in Lancaster. Ron is known for his untiring devotion to kids in need and has been actively involved as a private citizen and business leader since moving to the Antelope Valley in 1986. Year to date Kids Charities of the Antelope Valley has raised over three million dollars for the kids from various local fundraising events.

Our goal is to spread the gospel message of grace and mercy and provide a safe, high quality, family-oriented Christian fellowship. We have been blessed by the efforts of many well known internationally acclaimed artists and by talented local worship bands, church choirs, Christian speakers, compassion ministries, Christian merchants, concessionaires and more!

On the third weekend of September each year, literally thousands come together to enjoy the combined efforts of this unique community outreach. We invite to join us and be a part of a very special day!
