A Tauren Wells concert this fall is part of the Air1 Worship Now Tour, a five-act worship night that will most likely last about 2.5 to 3 hours, with general doors at 6:00 p.m. and the show starting at 7:00 p.m. That points to a finish around 9:30 to 10:00 p.m. The tour has not published a runtime or running order, so the length is an estimate; the door and start times are the promoter's published schedule.
Compare listings for every remaining date with our Tauren Wells tickets page. This guide separates what is confirmed (the door and start times published by the tour and venues) from what is estimated (show length, intermission, and end time), so you can plan dinner, babysitters, and the drive home.
The first thing to know is that this is not a solo Tauren Wells concert. It is one evening shared by five artists, which is why the night runs longer than a typical single-artist set.
What Is the Air1 Worship Now Tour?
The Air1 Worship Now Tour is a fall 2026 tour presented by Air1, the contemporary worship radio network, and it runs 20 cities from October 10 to November 13. Its tagline promises five acts across 20 nights, and its description calls it an evening of worship, powerful music, and community.
Some listings say 21 cities and others say 20, which appears to reflect different counts of the same run. Tauren Wells said in the tour announcement that he was excited to tour with his friends, and the tour is designed as a shared night rather than a headline concert with an opener.
Who Is on the Bill?
The bill is Tauren Wells, Seph Schlueter, Gateway Worship, Roosevelt Stewart, and Sarai Rivera, according to the tour announcement and venue listings. The tour's website presents Sarai Rivera and Roosevelt Stewart as newer names it is introducing.
• Tauren Wells: a Christian pop and worship artist and the former frontman of the band Royal Tailor, who hosted the 2025 GMA Dove Awards. The tour site lists his songs "Hills and Valleys," "Breathe On It," and "Let The Church Sing."
• Seph Schlueter: a worship artist whose song "Counting My Blessings" appears among the 2025 GMA Dove Awards nominees.
• Gateway Worship: a worship group listed on every venue page for the tour.
• Roosevelt Stewart and Sarai Rivera: listed as "introducing" on the tour's website, which suggests they are newer to the national stage.
The listing on Ryman Auditorium's page names the five acts, and other venue pages show slightly different subsets in their short descriptions, but the tour's own announcement lists all five.
Which Dates Are Left?
The tour began on October 10 in Frederick, Maryland and visited Syracuse on October 11, and 18 dates remain starting tonight, Wednesday, October 14, at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Every remaining date is listed at 7:00 p.m. local time.

Two cities are named differently by different sources: the Anderson, Indiana date is called Indianapolis on the tour's site, and the Bayside Church date is called Sacramento there and Roseville on ticket listings. Those are the same events, so check the venue address on your ticket.
What Time Do Doors Open?
The tour publishes a door schedule with up to three tiers: VIP doors at 4:45 p.m., Early Entry at 5:45 p.m. at some stops, and general admission or reserved-seat doors at 6:00 p.m., with the show at 7:00 p.m. The schedule is labeled subject to change, so confirm it for your date.
| Ticket Type | Doors Open | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| VIP | 4:45 PM | Must arrive by 5:00 PM to receive VIP perks |
| Early Entry (some stops) | 5:45 PM | Arrive before 6:00 PM to use the early-entry benefits |
| General or reserved seating | 6:00 PM | Doors one hour before the show |
| Show begins | 7:00 PM | Same time at the venues I checked |
Venue pages in Tulsa, Spokane, Rockford, and Tualatin repeat the pattern of doors at 6:00 p.m. and the show at 7:00 p.m., and the Tulsa page adds that all tickets are reserved seats. See other events at tonight's venue with our Ryman Auditorium tickets listings.
What Does the VIP Ticket Include?
The VIP ticket includes premium seating, a group photo with all the artists, an acoustic performance featuring all the artists, an exclusive Air1 merchandise item, early merchandise shopping, and a commemorative laminate, according to the tour's descriptions. VIP doors open at 4:45 p.m., and you must arrive by 5:00 p.m. to receive the perks.
That means a VIP experience starts more than two hours before the show. If you buy VIP, plan to be at the venue by 5:00 p.m., since the acoustic performance and photo happen before general doors. The acoustic set is separate from the main show, so it does not shorten it, but it does lengthen your evening.
Why Do Some Listings Show 6:00 PM?
Some ticket listings show 6:00 p.m. as the event time, which is the door time, not the start of the show. For example, a ticketing page for the Frederick stop showed a 6:00 p.m. time and then listed the show as beginning at 7:00 p.m.
If you see two different times for the same date, the earlier one is almost always doors and the later one is the show. Your ticket confirmation and the venue's own page are the best sources for each tier's time.
What Time Does the Show Start?
The show starts at 7:00 p.m. local time on every remaining date, according to the tour's schedule and the venue listings I checked. That is the start of the evening's program, not necessarily the first note from the headliner.
Because several acts share the bill, expect the first artist to take the stage at or near 7:00 p.m. and Tauren Wells to appear later in the night. The running order has not been published, so I do not know when he takes the stage, and it is worth arriving for the full evening if you want to see all five acts.
How Long Is the Show?
The show will most likely run about 2.5 to 3 hours, which is an estimate rather than an official figure. With five acts and no published running time, I built the estimate from a typical set length for each act plus changeovers, so treat the table as a planning range.
| Segment (Order Not Published) | Estimated Length | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| First act (a newer artist) | 20-30 minutes | A short opening set on a five-act bill |
| Second act (a newer artist) | 20-30 minutes | A short set |
| Gateway Worship | 30-40 minutes | A worship-style set with extended songs |
| Seph Schlueter | 30-40 minutes | A mid-bill set |
| Tauren Wells | 40-50 minutes | A headline set |
| Changeovers and spoken moments | 15-20 minutes | Between five acts |
| Total | About 2.5-3 hours | My estimate, not an official runtime |
The rows describe the acts, not a sequence, since the running order is not public. The ranges add up to roughly 2 hours 35 minutes at the low end and about 3 hours 30 minutes at the high end, so I use 2.5 to 3 hours as the most likely range and suggest allowing up to 3.5 hours.
What Is Tonight's Show at the Ryman Like?
Tonight's tour stop is at the Ryman Auditorium, at 116 Rep. John Lewis Way North in Nashville, with a 7:00 p.m. start and tickets on sale at the venue. The Ryman's listing names the full five-act lineup, so the night should follow the same format as the other stops.
The Ryman is one of the tour's historic theater stops, alongside the Louisville Palace and the Tulsa Theater. If you are in Nashville for the night, our Nashville tickets page lists other events in town.
What Order Do the Acts Play?
The running order has not been published. The tour lists the five acts together, and a Tulsa listing describes Tauren Wells as the featured act with the other four as special guests, which suggests he closes the night, but that is an inference rather than a confirmed fact.
If you only want to hear Tauren Wells, the safest plan is still to arrive for the 7:00 p.m. start, since a five-act show offers no published stage time for any one artist. If you want to see the acts the tour is introducing, arrive early, since newer artists often open.
Is There an Intermission?
No intermission has been announced. A five-act evening of about three hours often has a short break or a long changeover, but I did not find an official statement either way for this tour.
If you have children or need restroom breaks, plan around changeovers between acts rather than waiting for an announced pause. Check your venue's policies on re-entry and food and drink, since the tour plays both churches and theaters.
What Time Will the Show End?
Expect the show to end between about 9:30 and 10:00 p.m. local time, based on a 7:00 p.m. start and a 2.5-to-3-hour runtime, and as late as about 10:30 p.m. if everything runs long. No official end time has been announced.
If you are buying VIP, your night starts around 4:45 p.m., so you will be at the venue for roughly 5 to 5.25 hours. For general admission, plan on about 4 to 4.25 hours from doors to the final song, plus time to leave the lot.
Full Concert Night Timeline at a Glance
Here is how an evening is likely to unfold, with each row labeled as confirmed or estimated:
| Time (Local) | What's Happening | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 4:45 PM | VIP doors open | Confirmed |
| 5:00 PM | VIP arrival deadline for perks | Confirmed |

| 6:00 PM | General admission or reserved doors open | Confirmed |
| 7:00 PM | Show begins | Confirmed |
| ~9:30-10:00 PM | Show ends | Estimated |
| ~10:00-10:30 PM | Crowd exits the venue | Estimated |
Use the 7:00 p.m. start as your firm anchor and the end time as a range.
How Early Should You Arrive?
Arrive close to your door time if you want to see all five acts, which means 4:45 to 5:00 p.m. for VIP and about 6:00 to 6:30 p.m. for general admission. Some stops also offer an Early Entry tier at 5:45 p.m., which suits fans who want to shop merchandise or get a good seat first.
• VIP ticket holders: be there by 5:00 p.m. to get all the perks.
• Early Entry ticket holders (where offered): arrive before 6:00 p.m. to use the benefits.
• Everyone else: doors at 6:00 p.m. leave an hour to find your seat before the 7:00 p.m. start.
• Drivers: church venues often have large lots, but theaters in cities like Nashville and Louisville may need extra time for parking.

Churches or Theaters: What Should You Expect?
About ten of the 18 remaining dates are at churches or church-run venues, and the rest are at theaters or civic auditoriums. The theater dates include the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, the Louisville Palace, and the Tulsa Theater, while the church dates include Summit Church in San Antonio, Bayside Church, and Peoples Church in Fresno.
The timing pattern is the same across both, but the experience can differ. Church venues may have different seating, parking, and food rules than a historic theater, so check your venue's page. If you want to compare venue details, our pages for the
Ryman, the Louisville Palace, and the Tulsa Theater show what else is on at the theater stops.
Is the Tour Family-Friendly?
The tour is billed as an all-ages worship night, and the Frederick listing labeled the event all ages. A three-hour evening is long for young children, so consider how they handle a late bedtime and loud music.
Several venues sell reserved seats only, so families should choose seats with easy access to an aisle. Policies on strollers, outside food, and re-entry vary by venue, so check with your venue before you go.
What Should You Know Before You Go?
• Confirm your door tier on your ticket: VIP, Early Entry, and general admission have different times.
• Plan for about three hours of show time: that is an estimate, so build in extra time.
• Check the date and venue name: a few cities appear under different names on different sites.
• Review venue policies: age, bags, and outside food and drink vary between churches and theaters.
• Consider merchandise timing: VIP and Early Entry include early merchandise access, which helps avoid lines.
When you compare listings, check several marketplaces before you buy, either on a comparison site like TicketWhiz or by looking at each one yourself, and use our Tauren Wells tickets page to see all the remaining dates in one place.
Final Thoughts
Plan a Tauren Wells night on the Air1 Worship Now Tour as a three-hour, five-act evening: general doors at 6:00 p.m., the show at 7:00 p.m., and a finish most likely between 9:30 and 10:00 p.m. The door and start times are firm, while the runtime and running order are estimates until the tour says more.
