A new one-day Christian music festival is coming to Saratoga Springs this fall, and it’s bringing a marquee worship lineup to one of the Northeast’s most iconic outdoor venues. Worship In The Pines lands at Albany Med Health System at SPAC on Friday, September 11, 2026, headlined by six-time GRAMMY winner Brandon Lake — whose 2025 album King of Hearts debuted at No. 7 on the Billboard 200.
A Stacked Lineup, Tucked Among the Pines
Joining Lake on the bill: Crowder, Elevation Rhythm, Hulvey, Rend Collective, Lost & Found, and Gabe Von Oven. That’s a rare one-day convergence of contemporary Christian’s biggest touring names on a single bill, set against SPAC’s pine-canopy amphitheater — the kind of setting that tends to make a worship night feel less like a concert and more like a campground vigil at scale.
Lake’s trajectory is the story here. King of Hearts crossing into the mainstream Billboard 200 at No. 7 is a rare mainstream marker for a worship artist, and pairing that draw with Crowder’s deep-catalog Christian audience on the same stage is the kind of bill that gets families driving from Vermont, the Berkshires, and the Capital Region to the same parking lot.
Tickets, Dates & What to Know
Tickets are on sale at Ticketmaster, with early-access lawn entry starting at $30 all-in — an unusually low floor for an outdoor festival of this scale. Visit the Albany Med Health System at SPAC venue guide for directions, parking, and what to expect on the grounds at 108 Avenue of the Pines, Saratoga Springs.
Worship In The Pines is a new, first-year event at SPAC. For the worship audience in the Capital Region, this is the kind of one-day bill that doesn’t come around often — pack the lawn chair early. Find more fall shows at Capital Region concerts.
