Much to the attention of teenagers and young adults, artists are expected to project their voices to an estimated 200,000 plus crowd over the two days. Luis Palau and his proclamation of the good news are scheduled to be sandwiched in between the music performances to create a greater incentive for the large crowds of believers and nonbelievers to hear the gospel and remain until the end of the event.
