House On The Rock has unveiled the 2026 edition of The Africa Praise Experience (TAPE), one of Africa’s biggest gospel gatherings, set for Friday, July 10, 2026, at The Rock Cathedral, Lekki, Lagos.

Hosted by Paul Adefarasin, Founder and Metropolitan of House On The Rock, the annual event draws gospel ministers, worshippers, creatives, and believers from across Africa and beyond for a night of praise, worship, and spiritual renewal.

Themed “One Altar. One Sound. One God.”, TAPE 2026 celebrates the unifying power of worship while spotlighting the diversity of African praise through music, culture, and faith.

This year’s line-up is stacked: Nathaniel Bassey, Frank Edwards, Mercy Chinwo, Moses Bliss, Sonnie Badu, Beejay Sax, Bidemi Alaoba, Kaestrings, Mr M & Revelation, Onos Ariyo, Prinx Emmanuel, Emma OMG, Blessing Lopez, Sunmisola Agbebi, Pastor Tolu Odukoya, and IB Quake.

The Lagos Metropolitan Gospel Choir and The Rock Cathedral Gospel Choir round out the bill.

Organisers say the night will blend contemporary gospel with indigenous African worship, weaving in prayer and reflection to inspire hope, gratitude, and renewed faith.

Entry is free and open to the public.
