A Nation’s Call to Purpose, Power, and Praise

This Emancipation weekend, a clarion call goes out to the nation and beyond.

5 Days of Awesome Festival returns with a thunderous roar under the theme ARISE, from August 1st to 5th, 2025 at the Lower Ottos Basketball Court, 7PM nightly—except for the Go For Bold Summit, which takes place Saturday morning from 10AM–12PM online.

This is not just another gospel concert. It is not a lineup—it is a movement. A sound. A summons. A gathering of voices and visionaries echoing one message: It’s time to ARISE.

What to Expect: Five Days. One Purpose. Unstoppable Energy. Friday, August 1 – Word On Fire:

Launch night ignites with powerhouses like Mike The Chaplain (USA), Apostle David R. Williams (Jamaica) and Guest Psalmist Carolyn Philip (Antigua). Expect a prophetic release that will impact your life in a real way. Chains broken, sickness healed, souls set free and hearts uplifted, as we experience true liberty. Hosted by Pastor Kevin St. Hill

Saturday, August 2 – Go For Bold Summit (Online, 10AM–12PM):

A 2-hour summit for forward-thinkers, entrepreneurs, and nation builders. Featuring Dr. Apostle Stanshaw Cornelius (Antigua), Dr. Martin Christie (Jamaica/USA), Dr. Apostle Lovella Mogere (St. Croix/USA), Vernon A. Springer (Antigua), and Elzeva Cuffy (St. Kitts)—this is where legacy meets strategy.

Sunday, August 3 – Music, Inspiration & Culture:

A fusion of local brilliance and regional soul. Hosted by Dr. Apostle Stanshaw Cornelius who will be the Keynote Speaker, with special performances from Cassada Gardens Fellowship and Mike The Chaplain, this night blends sound, identity, and purpose.

Monday, August 4 – Praise Out Loud:

This nation belongs to the only Sovereign God and eveything that has breath should praise him. Praise Out Loud will feature Junior Rumble (Jamaica), Elijah Johnson,

DiscypIe and Peetron out of Antigua. An evening of unapologetic praise with power and rhythm.

Tuesday, August 5 – Favour Fest:

A triumphant close with Mike the Chaplain (USA), 3 Pac Banton, Marc Ministry (Bahamas), Lois Powell, Evangelist Sandy Lopez and more. It’s not just music—it’s prophetic release and kingdom celebration. Hosted by Glenroy Maxim.

Why ARISE?

Because we are not here to entertain—we are here to awaken. Because culture must not only reflect us—it must elevate us. Because legacy is not inherited—it’s intentionally built.

5 Days of Awesome emerges as a spiritual and creative force in the region. This year’s theme, ARISE, is a national invitation to step out of delay, fear, and limitation

—and step into divine timing, collective power, and unapologetic boldness.
