LOS ANGELES, Sept. 4, 2012 /Christian Newswire/ -- Two-thousand-and-twelve marks the 30th year of the celebrated Disney's Night of Joy contemporary Christian concert series, and this year Trinity Broadcasting Network, America's most-watched faith channel, will be on hand to cover the entire two-day event, September 7 and 8, at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.

Each year Disney's Night of Joy features a stellar lineup of both Dove- and Grammy-Award-winning Christian artists at the Magic Kingdom park, and this year is no exception. Among the performers slated to appear on the Magic Kingdom stages are Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, Kutless, Third Day, Brandon Heath, Mercy Me, Royal Tailor, LeCrae, and more.

"Since its beginnings in 1983, Disney's Night of Joy has gained a well-deserved reputation as a top-tier venue for some of the best artists in contemporary Christian music," said Matt Crouch, TBN's Vice President of Administration. "This year TBN will be there to cover all the music and excitement of this event. We're thrilled to be a part."

The network's production crews will be on hand for both action-packed days, recording the best from each concert segment, and catching behind-the-scenes interviews with featured artists, for future broadcast on TBN and its exclusive JCTV youth network.

"Our coverage of the Night of Joy is a great example of the commitment TBN and its family of networks have to provide viewers with the very best in music, ministry, and Christian programming 24 hours a day," said Matt Crouch. "That commitment reaches back 40 years to TBN's founding, and is why we continue to be the go-to source around the world for faith and family television."
