Universal Orlando announces lineup for 2020 Christian music fest

Three-time Grammy Award winner TobyMac will headline the 2020 edition of Rock the Universe, Universal Orlando’s annual Christian music festival.

The full lineup for the Jan. 24-25 event was released Thursday. Along with TobyMac, it includes artists such as Switchfoot, Newsboys, Chris Tomlin, Bethel Music and Tenth Avenue North. Set times have yet to be announced.

Many of the acts are no strangers to the festival. In fact, for TobyMac, this will be his 11th appearance as a solo artist at Rock the Universe, having first performed there in 2002. Along with the concerts at Universal Studios Florida’s Music Plaza Stage, the event includes a Sunday morning worship service.

“At the heart of the event, Rock the Universe supports youth group ministries and offers special pricing, exclusive vacation packages, benefits and opportunities to groups,” Universal said in a press release.

Rock the Universe requires a separate ticket, with Universal Studios Florida closing for regular guests at 6 p.m. and the event lasting until 1 a.m. Select rides, including Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit, Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts, Transformers: The Ride and Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem.

One-night tickets cost $72 and two-night ticket are $112. Both options will allow guests to enter Universal Studios Florida after 4 p.m. Universal is also offering a three-day pass which allows all-day park access and entrance to Rock the Universe starting at $128.

The festival used to be held in early September, just before the beginning of Halloween Horror Nights. The 2019 edition was moved to February, giving HHN space to start a week earlier this year.
