What is Halleluya?

A celebration of art, joy, innovation, solidarity, and faith, the Halleluya Festival is affectionately known as “The Party That Never Ends.” As the largest Catholic festival of integrated arts in the world, Halleluya is a free-admission event that brings together music, dance, painting, and prayer to lead people into a profound encounter with Jesus Christ and a joy that never fades.

Originating in Fortaleza, Brazil, the festival gathers over one million people each year and has lit up cities like Panama City, Lisbon, Kraków, and Paris. With performances from international artists like Matt Maher, Missionário Shalom, Fr. Rob Galea, Alfareros, and Banda Reale, Halleluya is a powerful blend of culture, talent, and faith.

The world-renowned Halleluya Festival is coming home again— the Block Party is taking place in Williamsburg, Brooklyn! Hosted by the Shalom Catholic Community, this will be the festival’s second edition in the Big Apple, and we couldn't be more excited!
