TAMPA, FL – Chris Tomlin, a Pollstar ‘Top 10 Worldwide Tour’ headliner and one of the most successful Christian touring artists today, has added a second leg this fall to his Holy Forever World Tour due to the tremendous response for the global tour set to launch April 18, including a stop at Tampa’s Yuengling Center on Saturday, Nov. 23 at 7:00 p.m. The first leg includes Chris’ first headline tour overseas in more than a decade as the Grammy award winner is set to perform concerts across the U.S. and globally, including England, Ireland, Netherlands, Germany and Hungary. The second leg will add 18 concerts to the calendar beginning Oct. 18. Ticket pre-sales begin Monday, March 25 at ChrisTomlin.com. Grammy-nominated artist Tauren Wells will join Tomlin for the stop in Tampa. 

 

“It’s remarkable to see how God is using ‘Holy Forever,’” said Chris. “I never could have imagined how quickly the song would connect with the church around the world. As part of that, I am honored to announce the addition of 18 new cities to the ‘Holy Forever World Tour.’ The tour starts next month, and I am excited to see what else God has in store for ‘Holy Forever.’”

 

The Holy Forever World Tour is aptly named after one of the fastest growing songs in the church right now and one of his largest consumed songs each week in his distinguished catalog with the single currently sitting at over 140 million streams. “Holy Forever,” a Grammy-nominated six-week No. 1 single, has become one of the most significant songs of Chris’ 20 plus year career. Its reach and impact continues to help in Chris’ global mission and desire to help give people a voice to worship God. Billboard touted, “Tomlin’s name has become synonymous with modern worship music, as the Texas native has issued songs that have evolved into music standards sung by church congregations around the world.”

 

2024 is on pace to be one of Chris’ busiest of his career as he delivered a new album, Live From Good Fridayon March 15 and his book How Great is Our God: Living a Worship-Led Life in a Me-Driven World (K-LOVE Books) is out tomorrow in celebration of one of his most impactful songs as he invites readers to redefine worship beyond music. Chris uses his experience as a worship leader to provide readers with tools for living a God-centered life.
