We have a plethora of stories to tell at Ichthus! We have a wide variety of service projects being done by students, leaders and bands before the festival even starts. We have a whole recycle program happening during the festival. We offer a character and leadership soccer camp hosted by professional athletes from the Charlotte Eagles. We have an entire ministry to the deaf community. And of course we have amazing speakers and bands! Not enough story ideas?? We have hundreds of human-interest stories as well.
We invite reporters from newspaper, television and radio outlets who want to cover Ichthus to apply for a press pass. We will notify you of your acceptance via email and outline where you can obtain your “Press Pass.” Our guidelines for obtaining a press pass have changed so please read through the guidelines before applying.
