A Night to Remember: Performers and Highlights From the 2026 K-LOVE Fan Awards

Nashville's Grand Ole Opry House came alive Thursday evening as the 13th annual K-LOVE Fan Awards brought together some of the biggest names in Christian entertainment for one unforgettable night. Co-hosted by GRAMMY winner Lauren Daigle and author, podcaster, and speaker Sadie Robertson Huff, the fan-voted ceremony aired live on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), with an encore broadcast set for June 5th at 7:30 and 10 PM ET on TBN and the TBN+ app.
