Every year, the K-LOVE Fan Awards brings together some of the biggest names in Christian music, worship, film, podcasts, and faith-based entertainment for a celebration that’s part concert, part community gathering, and part worship experience. It’s one of the most anticipated events in Christian entertainment and includes unforgettable performances, inspiring stories, and moments that reflect the heart of today’s faith-driven music culture.
The K-LOVE Fan Awards 2026 was filled with powerful live performances, meaningful artist moments, and opportunities to celebrate the songs and voices shaping Christian music right now.
Whether you’ve watched for years or are discovering the event for the first time, this year’s celebration brought together artists, fans, and families in a way that you won’t find anywhere else.
What Makes the K-LOVE Fan Awards Unique?
Unlike many traditional music award shows, the K-LOVE Fan Awards focuses heavily on connection and encouragement. Fans play a major role in the experience by voting for their favorite artists, songs, podcasts, films, and personalities, making the event feel more personal and community-driven than a typical industry awards ceremony.
The atmosphere also blends celebration and worship. You can go from a high-energy live performance to an artist sharing a personal testimony or message of hope, which is part of what has helped the event become such an important gathering point within Christian entertainment.
Over the years, artists like Lauren Daigle, for KING & COUNTRY, Brandon Lake, CeCe Winans, and TobyMac have helped create memorable moments that continue to resonate with fans long after the event ends.
The Red Carpet Is Part of the Experience
In addition to the main awards show, the K-LOVE red carpet has become an event of its own. Artists, hosts, musicians, actors, and Christian media personalities arrive for interviews, fan interactions, and behind-the-scenes moments that help build anticipation for the night ahead.
TBN hosted this year's red carpet coverage with K-LOVE radio host and DJ Lauree Austin. The red carpet gives viewers a chance to see a different side of their favorite artists, from lighthearted interviews to conversations about upcoming music, ministry, and personal faith journeys. It also helps spotlight newer artists who are beginning to shape the next generation of Christian music.
