“It’s amazing and humbling to see how God has continued to bless the Winter Jam Tour over all these years," says NewSong's Eddie Carswell. "We specifically created and designed this tour to impact the lives of others for the sake of the Gospel. Our prayer is that God will continue to use Winter Jam for His glory and honor.”

"This year's tour will be unlike any other Winter Jam in history," says Roy Morgan, owner, Premier Productions, producer of Winter Jam. "Winter Jam 2011 will have tons of surprises that no one is expecting. You will not want to miss this. Also, if someone has never experienced a Winter Jam event before, then this is the year to come."

This year’s Winter Jam was the #1 tour in America in the first quarter and landed at #2 on Pollstar’s 2010 Worldwide First Quarter Ticket Sales “Top 100 Tours” chart, with attendance in excess of 400,000 people. Winter Jam 2010 also saw an estimated 74,000 people make decisions for Christ, and facilitated more than 10,000 sponsorship commitments to adoption and child welfare organization Holt International to help meet the needs of orphaned children around the world.
