Sanctus Real — 30th Anniversary Tour

The Band

A Legacy Built in the Church

Sanctus Real has been one of Christian music's most beloved bands for three decades. Formed in Toledo, Ohio in 1996, the band is still anchored by two of its founding members — guitarist Chris Rohman and drummer Mark Graalman — and in 2016 welcomed lead singer Dustin Lolli, opening a powerful new chapter that produced some of the band's biggest songs.

Across that journey they've charted 8 #1 radio hits, earned multiple Dove and Grammy nominations, and surpassed 500 million global streams — writing songs that somehow found people in the moments that mattered most: the hard seasons, the quiet breakthroughs, and the Sunday mornings when the right words were hard to find.

Songs like "Lead Me," "Confidence," "My God Is Still the Same," and "Whatever You're Doing" haven't just charted — they've marked moments in people's lives. The audience that grew up with this band is your congregation.

The Opportunity

Simple & Low-Risk

There is no upfront guarantee required. We work on a straightforward incentive system — Sanctus Real handles all ticketing and pricing, and your church focuses on opening the doors and welcoming people in. Once the room is 50% full, your church shares in the revenue and has the opportunity to further benefit from the success of the show.

Minimal expense with great upside — Once we cover the cost of performing, we share in the revenue with you. The more you help us spread the word to the community and fill the room, the more your church earns to support other aspects of your ministry!

Why Host

An Evening Your Congregation Already Knows by Heart

Sanctus Real's audience has grown up in the church. These are your congregants and their families — adults who have sung these songs for decades and would genuinely love an evening to revisit them in community. Hosting this show is a natural extension of your church's ministry, and a compelling reason to invite not-yet-churched friends to step onto your campus.
