Before you book for REVIVE 2026...

Some important info for those going from St Michael's:

  1. Don't book any evening meals: we'll organise them separately for St Michael's folk!

  2. For lunches it's up to you: either pay for the small provided packed lunch, or buy something from the food stalls on the field, or bring your own. There are kitchens in the accommodation with fridges, kettles, cookers, microwaves etc, and a small Co-op on site if needed.

  3. [£5 Discount code - now expired: if you book between 12-26 April there's a £5 discount on adult weekend or Team Revive tickets. Use the code STMF2026 in the promo box on the final page, NOT in the 'access code' box on the first page!]

  4. Team Revive: would you consider being part of the huge team which helps to run Revive? You could offer to join the kids and youth, site, media, stewarding or cafe teams, and there's a much bigger discount on your ticket price.

FAQs

Wait... what is REVIVE?
It's an annual festival for all the Co-Mission churches - the planting network which we're a part of. We stay in student flats at the University of Kent, next to a giant field on which there will be a big top, several marquees, plus sports, an outdoor bar, food stalls, a coffee and bookstall tent, children's activities, creche, and much more! 

What happens during the weekend?
We, plus a couple of thousand others, enjoy main sessions in the big top with precious and encouraging times of worship, plus deep and applied Bible teaching. Besides that, there's plenty of time to kick back and relax over food, enjoy the sunshine (hopefully!), attend seminars, play some sport, watch fireworks, go to silent discos...

What about youth and children?
Children and youth love Revive: it's a huge encouragement to be amongst so many others of their age, with lots to learn about God and plenty of fun. There are many different age-appropriate groups with their own programmes - click on the booking link above

Is it expensive? What if the cost is too much for me?
The Co-Mission team work really hard to keep costs down, but the hire of accommodation and all the other facilities does add up. That said, there are some great ways to save:
1. Our little St Michael's discount, available between 21-21 April (see above).
2. Join Team Revive for a much bigger discount (see above).
3. If you'd like to come but the cost is prohibitive, please chat to one of the church staff as we'd love you to come, and there might be some help available. 

What's the accommodation like?
We stay in flats of 5 or 6 bedrooms with a kitchen and bathrooms. Each bedroom is lockable and has a single bed. Adults get a room each, and children are able to share by using a camp bed etc. Our St Michael's flats will all be next to each other, with space outside for eating meals, sitting, chilling or chatting over a slice of cake or a glass of wine. Lovely.

Will it be big and overwhelming?
Well, there are a lot of people, but actually we have a great time together as St Michael's folk, with accommodation in the same block, time to hang out, or space to escape. We can find seats together in the Big Top or other sessions. And if you need it you've always got a room to relax or sleep in!

Great! Where can I see videos and pics, read more and maybe book?
