Bill & Gloria Gaither are bringing one of gospel music's most beloved gatherings back to Oklahoma this summer as the Bill & Gloria Gaither And Friends Homecoming comes to Tulsa for a special two-day event on August 15-16, 2026.
Set to take place at the Mabee Center in Tulsa, the Homecoming celebration will unite dozens of legendary gospel artists, fan favorites, and longtime Homecoming friends for a weekend centered on worship, testimony, and timeless songs of faith. Organizers are encouraging attendees to purchase tickets for both days, noting that the Saturday and Sunday concerts will each feature unique lineups, performances, and moments that will not be repeated.
For decades, the Gaither Homecoming series has remained one of the most influential and recognizable brands in Christian and Southern Gospel music, bringing generations together through hymns, worship anthems, storytelling, and heartfelt collaborations. The Tulsa event promises to continue that tradition with an all-star roster of performers joining the Gaithers on stage to "lift high the name of Jesus."
Among the artists announced for the weekend are the Gaither Vocal Band, Mark Lowry, Jason Crabb, The Martins, The Hoppers, Karen Peck & New River, Lynda Randle, Gordon Mote, Joseph Habedank, Angela Primm, Chris Blue, and many more. The gathering is expected to feature a blend of classic Homecoming favorites, worship moments, congregational singing, personal testimonies, and surprise collaborations that have become trademarks of Gaither events through the years.
The Homecoming concerts have long served as more than just musical performances. For many attendees, the events are viewed as family reunions of faith, bringing together believers from across generations and denominations through songs that have shaped the Christian music landscape for decades. Bill and Gloria Gaither's influence on gospel music continues to span generations, with their Homecoming tours and recordings helping introduce legendary gospel voices to new audiences around the world.
Both Tulsa concerts are scheduled for 2:00 PM, with doors opening at 12:30 PM. Tickets are currently available through the Mabee Center and official Gaither outlets.
Fans are already expressing excitement online as anticipation builds for what many are calling one of the major gospel music events of the summer.
