PAOLI, PA — AbbeyFest, Greater Philadelphia’s premier celebration of faith, family, friends, and contemporary Catholic/Christian music, will celebrate its 10th anniversary at Daylesford Abbey on September 14, 2024. The day-long festival will include food trucks, merchandise tents, kid-friendly activities, music, Eucharistic Adoration, Confession and Holy Mass celebrated by Archbishop Nelson J. Pérez. Daylesford Abbey is located at 220 S. Valley Rd., Paoli, PA.
“Our 10th AbbeyFest is poised to be the best one yet,” said Mark Griswold, Director of Religious Education and Music Ministries at St. Norbert Parish and one of the founders of AbbeyFest. “We are blessed to once again have a day to celebrate and witness to what it means to be authentically Catholic and Christian in our praise and worship of Jesus Christ.”
AbbeyFest offers opportunities for children, teens, youth groups, and families to encounter Jesus Christ and experience the fullness of the Faith. “It’s a wonderful way to create meaningful memories with family members of all ages,” added Griswold.
This year’s music lineup features headliner Matt Maher, a nine-time-GRAMMY® nominee and three-time-GMA Dove Award®, with emerging star, Seph Schlueter, who recently took home K-LOVE’s Breakout Single of the Year award for ‘Counting My Blessings’. Brother Isaiah, Dana Catherine, and The Philadelphia Catholic Gospel Mass Choir under the direction of Tonya Taylor-Dorsey, will round out the day’s performers.
“One of the most unique aspects of AbbeyFest is its engaging atmosphere for children, teens, youth groups, and families to experience the fullness of faith and truth of Jesus Christ,” concluded Deacon Hank Fila, advancement director for St. Norbert Parish and AbbeyFest. “We are thrilled to once again welcome Matt Maher and Archbishop Perez to AbbeyFest!”
