Sonshine Festival is a Christian music festival held annually in Willmar, Minnesota, usually the second weekend in July.[1] It features Christian musical artists from the United States and around the world. The festival is a member of the Christian Festival Association.
A secondary function of the festival is to promote chartiable events through Compassion International. Each year people sign up to provide food, clothing, and education to children in poor countries.
The festival hosts a wide variety of bands and has hosted regional concerts, such as one which centered on bands from Australia including: Paul Colman Trio, Rebecca St. James, and The Newsboys. There are six stages and on-site concessions offering food.
