About Newday
NEWDAY EXISTS TO HELP THE CHURCH REACH AND DISCIPLE THE NEXT GENERATION
Since Newday's first event in 2004 we have seen thousands of young people, year after year, come and encounter Jesus for themselves.
We are just as passionate as ever about equipping local churches to reach and disciple the young people in their church and community. As part of this we run our annual festival every summer at Norfolk Showground along with our Yth Cltr events for those working with young people.
WHO WE ARE
Newday Generation UK is a charity set up in 2023 to run events serving churches across the UK and beyond.
Newday was started by the Newfrontiers family of churches in 2004 and over the years has continued to serve these churches, but has also been widely attended by churches from other networks and families who now make up a large portion of those who attend.
Newday is a member of the Evangelical Alliance.
Join us
Imagine what can happen when a generation of young people find their purpose in God and become an integral part of something bigger. A generation equipped and a nation transformed.
That’s why we want you to be a part of Newday.
