Take Hold Fest will feature over 30 different bands and musicians, a few of which include Illinois hardcore band From the Eyes of Servants, neighborhood favorite folk punk rockers the Heartside Hooligans, Detroit death metal group As They Sleep, Minnesota punkers Triple Stitch, and Grand Rapids native indie rock champions the Skies Revolt, who will be reuniting with past members for the event.

Following its years-long tradition, Take Hold Fest features two stages: The Lamb Stage, an intimate space for stripped-down acoustic acts, which alternates acts with The Lion Stage, a larger stage with a ferocious sound system for heavier music. Concert goers will also be able to pick up merch from the bands and ministries attending in the front room or grab a quick snack at concessions.

The variety and inclusiveness of the Fest means there's something for everyone of any age and background; so whether you're a regular attendee or just looking for somewhere free and fun to go on a weekend out on the town, stop in and enjoy the music and community at Take Hold Fest. 

The public is also invited to the Sunday morning worship service on November 17 at 10:30 a.m. Take Hold Church is located at 222 Division, just south of the Cherry Street intersection. Parking is limited, so attendees are asked to please park at street meters, which are free after 6 p.m. on Friday and all day on the weekend.
