Disney World will celebrate its 27th annual installment of Night of Joy on Sept. 11-12, 2009 at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
This Disney tradition showcasing Christian Music was first held in 1983.

2009’s Night of Joy will bring together 14 musical acts for the two day contemporary Christian Music festival. Multi-platinum Christian rock band P.O.D. will make its 2009 concert debut. The event also will feature MercyMe, newsboys, Skillet, Flyleaf, Chris Tomlin, Kutless, Jars of Clay, Grits, Leeland, NEEDTOBREATHE, Superchick, Mandisa and Family Force 5.
Although the acts all have lyrics characterized as Christian their musical styles vary including: Adult Contemporary, Rock, Alternative Rock, Progressive Rock, Hard Rock, Pop, Hip Hop, & Contemporary Gospel.
This is a special hard ticket event that will start after regular operating hours in the park. Seven acts will perform each evening between 7 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. at stage locations throughout the park. Once Night of Joy begins each evening the concerts and select park attractions are available exclusively for the enjoyment of event ticket holders.
