The Federation’s premier gospel concert, Praise Fest, returns to the Antioch Baptist Church Grounds on Sunday, June 21, 2026, for what is shaping up to be a landmark evening of worship and ministry. Held under the banner of the St. Kitts Music Festival, the event will open with a worship session at 5:30 PM ahead of the main concert at 6:00 PM.

This year’s lineup brings together some of the most compelling voices in Caribbean gospel. Headlining the night is Chevelle Franklyn, the award-winning Jamaican gospel reggae singer who has become one of the region’s leading psalmists and the only Caribbean minister to have performed at “The Experience” in Lagos, Nigeria — the world’s largest gospel concert. Joining her are Brent Hoyte, gospel artist Positive, the energetic Tehillah Band, and local choir UTCC Praise.

Tickets are available through Sister Beverly on Fort Street, Westside Service Centre in St. Kitts, Island Flavours in Charlestown, Nevis, members of the Antioch Baptist Church, and online at antiochbaptistskn.org.
