Four-time Grammy Award-winning Christian rock band Third Day will reunite for a 30th anniversary tour in spring 2026, marking their first tour with the original lineup in more than a decade.
The Third Day 30th Anniversary Tour will span 30 arena shows across the United States, launching March 19 in Jacksonville, Florida, and concluding May 10 in the band’s hometown market of Atlanta at the Gas South Arena in Duluth, Georgia. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 27, at 10 a.m. local time through ThirdDay.com and AwakeningFoundation.com.
Original members Mac Powell, Mark Lee, David Carr and Tai Anderson will take the stage together again for the first time since their 2018 farewell tour, which sold out in just 12 minutes. The anniversary run is being produced by the Awakening Foundation.
Formed in the early 1990s, Third Day has become one of the most decorated and influential acts in Christian music. Over the course of their career, the band has earned four Grammy Awards, an American Music Award, and more than two dozen Gospel Music Association Dove Awards. They’ve sold more than 7 million albums and notched 31 No. 1 radio singles across 14 studio albums, including hits like “Cry Out to Jesus,” “Soul on Fire” and “Call My Name.” They were also inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame and appeared in the Jennifer Garner film “Miracles from Heaven.”
“Third Day has always been, first and foremost, a live band,” guitarist Mark Lee said in a statement. “The best way to celebrate 30 years is to get back together for a tour.”
Frontman Mac Powell added, “I’m so excited that we finally get the chance to play music together again on stage and give our fans what they’ve been waiting for.”
Zach Williams, a Grammy-winning singer-songwriter known for “Chain Breaker” and “There Was Jesus” featuring Dolly Parton, will join the tour as a special guest.
“Celebrating 30 years of Third Day is a true honor, and bringing Mac, Mark, David and Tai back to the stage is something fans have been waiting for,” said Dan Fife, CEO of Awakening Events. “Adding Zach Williams makes this tour even more powerful.”
Third Day first broke through with their self-titled major-label debut in 1996 on Reunion Records. Their blend of Southern rock, worship and faith-based anthems helped pave the way for a new generation of contemporary Christian artists.
