Hills Alive is July 19th and 20th, 2008 in Memorial Park, Rapid City.


Hills Alive started in 1985. It was held at Hart Ranch, just outside of Rapid City. It started as a one-day event, but expanded to two days in its second year with local talent and a barbecue. In 1988 the Festival moved to Spearfish City Park in Spearfish, SD and was kicked off with the Torch Run. Runners from the far reaches of the KSLT broadcast signal carried a torch from the four corners of our signal all the way into the park, signifying the claiming of the land for the Kingdom of God. The Festival was held in Spearfish City Park for 10 years.

1998 marked our first year at Memorial Park in Rapid City, SD. In 2003 area churches linked up with KSLT & KLMP, along with area businesses and individual sponsors, to make the festival a FREE community event. We have seen God do many great things through the Festival over the years! Lives have been changed. Relationships have been healed. Friendships have been started, and are renewed each year. Enjoy the concert, and be open to the ministry that God can do in you and through you!
