The Experience, which started as a thought inspired by God in the mind of the Metropolitan Senior Pastor of the House on The Rock church, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, has become,  unarguably, the most anticipated gospel music event in Africa among Christians and non-Christians alike.

It averages a yearly attendance of more than 500,000 people attend the event, while millions of people connect with it online from all over the globe.

This year edition aptly with the theme: Jesus, Our Peace, is to express the true nature of our Lord Jesus Christ.

According to the convener of the event Adefarasin, the inspiration behind the 2018 theme is to highlight who Jesus is, especially in the world we live in today – the Prince of Peace.

He emphasised that regardless of the outcome of the “forthcoming national elections; peace is the ultimate candidate that we should all support, and must be the candidate that wins. “Peace (as I know it) is not the absence of tension but the presence of Justice,” he said.

The concert according to him, will be a continuous reminder that the God of Peace is with us.

Other artistes that will perform at the event are: Don Moen, Donnie McClurkin, Timi Dakolo, Nathaniel Bassey, Vicki Yohe, Chioma Jesus, Ebe, Tim Godfrey, Mike Aremu, Glowreeyah, Onos, Eno Michael and Chee.  And for the first time, the  event will feature JJ Hairston, Planetshakers and ADA.

According to the organisers, the concert which is free to all will be hosted with unparalleled professionalism, hospitality, security, excellence, unity and most importantly with a focus to continue to provide a platform where attendants can pray for our nation and worship God together regardless of tribe, denomination, creed or language.
