The Luis Palau Association is set to bring Zimbabwe together through faith, music, and fellowship at the Love Zimbabwe Festival, an interdenominational Christian event designed to inspire unity and share the message of Jesus Christ.
The festival, which will run under the theme of love and outreach, is tailored for all age groups and walks of life. Dedicated activities will cater for women, youths, children, and executives, ensuring that the event resonates with the wider community.
Organizers say the heart of the festival is evangelism — creating a space where non-believers can encounter the Christian faith through music, testimonies, and fellowship.
More than 22 gospel artists are expected to take the stage, including renowned Nigerian songstress Ada Ehi and celebrated Zimbabwean musicians such as Dorcas Moyo, Tembalami, Mathias Mhere, Takesure Zamar, Janet Manyowa, and even Baba Harare, among others.
Activities at the main festival will include action sports with professional BMX and FMX riders performing daring stunts, alongside a fun zone for children, making it an event for the whole family to enjoy.
“The festival has come at a time when, as mothers, grandmothers, ladies, and women, we are in need of answers to the many challenges facing our young people, like drug and substance abuse. The inclusion of sporting activities, BMX bike rides, music, and gatherings will enable the youths to meet their Savior, Jesus Christ,” said Bishop Mavis Gurupira.
For more than 25 years, Andrew Palau has played a key role in the ministry of the Luis Palau Association (LPA). He has been instrumental in building the LPA model for citywide outreach as an evangelist, director, and key team leader. Palau has guided campaigns, led church relations efforts, and trained thousands of believers in friendship evangelism. Above all, he has proclaimed the Good News of Jesus Christ in person to millions of individuals around the world through evangelistic festivals such as the forthcoming Love Zimbabwe Festival.
“It’s an honor and a dream that is finally coming true, to partner with you and all the churches, to lift high the name of Jesus. Serving together, we can reach out to every member of the community, right there in the heart of the city,” said Andrew Palau.
With such a diverse line-up and vision, the Love Zimbabwe Festival promises to be one of the biggest Christian gatherings on the local calendar — a celebration of music, unity, and the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.
