Ichthus loves music--all kinds of music--and its nationally know for its variety of artists. It has seven stages (that all run simultaneously) with nearly all generes of artists. You won't find opera or classical, but you will find rock, hard rock, pop, adult contemporary, hip hop, indie, metal, hardcore, worship, punk, folk, singer-songwriter, some blues, and even some stuff that defies all classification! Here's your quick guide to Ichthus' four most popular stages. 

MAIN STAGE
The main stage is our biggest, and it's where some of the biggest artists come to play. It has two big screens and a thrust (a narrow aisle that runs out from the front of the stage). The main-stage "bowl" can seat more than 20,000 people, and it sometimes fills to near-capacity when evening headliners play. It is an open-air stage, and it has only the stars as its overhead lights. 

Genres: Adult contemporary, rock, hard rock, worship, and occasional hip-hop.

DEEP END STAGE
The Deep End is our second largest stage, and it hosts some of our louder, harder, faster, and screaming bands. It also hosts some of our harder headliners. Although there's a mix of bands and sounds, the Deep End sometimes has scheduled blocks devoted to single genres. It's an open-air stage that can handle an audience of more than 6,000 people. 

Genres: Rock, hard rock, metal, hardcore, post-hardcore, emo, punk, and hip hop.

THE GALLERIA STAGE
The Galleria Stage is our only stage with seating. It's a tent venue that has row seating in the front and a coffeehouse with table seating in the back. It provides a space for you to sip a latte while enjoying a quieter vibe. Although Galleria bands occasionally jam out with full instrumentation, this stage was created for those who appreciate unplugged, scaled-down, acoustic, and more mature styles of music. It often features some of the best musicians in the world (like Ichthus favorite Phil Keaggy) and singer-songwriters and folk-rock musicians who focus more on song lyrics, acoustic blends, and distinct vocals.  

Genres: Folk rock, singer-songwriter, eclectic, acoustic pop, worship, indie, and blues.

THE EDGE STAGE
The Edge is another one of our tent stages, and it primarily hosts regional, newer, and emerging artists. As the stage name suggests, these artists are "on the edge" of expanding their musical careers. Although many of these artists are lesser-known, that doesn't mean they're lesser-talented! This is a great place to experience some incredible artists that don't get a lot of radio play. Evening Edge artists often become Ichthus favorites and move on to our bigger stages. 

Genres: The Edge is our most eclectic stage, offering a variety of genres by emerging artists.
