FAQ's

Great question. Our heart is to create the best experience possible for everyone — especially first-time guests. Christmas gatherings are some of our highest-attended of the year, and reservations help us prepare well and make room for everyone.

When you reserve, please select the appropriate registration type for each person in your family:
Main Gathering — for adults, students, and school-age kids sitting in the auditorium
Freedom Kids (Nursery–PreK) — for little ones you plan to check into Freedom Kids

Choosing the correct registration type helps us plan seating, staff our teams, and create safe, fun environments for your kids.

Not exactly. Your reservation helps us plan for how many people are coming, but it doesn’t guarantee seat preferences.

On December 24, some campuses will reach capacity. When that happens, our ushers will seat your party in a specific section and seat that fits your group, and you may not be able to choose where you sit.

You won’t be able to save seats. Please do your best to have your whole party arrive together in order to sit together. If your party arrives late, it may not be possible to seat everyone together.

If having more flexibility matters to you, your best chance to sit wherever you want is on December 23 or at the 11PM gathering in Bel Air.

Just one person per family or party needs to reserve. Just let us know how many people are coming with you. Everyone sitting in the gathering with you should be counted, kids and adults. A general rule would be, if they will have their own seat, count them. If you are checking in kids to Freedom Kids, let us know on your registration. Keep in mind that Freedom Kids is only available for Nursery through PreK. See more below.

We’re so glad you’ll be joining us for Christmas with Freedom this year! When you arrive, our parking team will help you find a space. We’ve planned a great experience, and hope you make yourself at home when you enter the lobby with a fresh cup of coffee or hot chocolate (or both!). The experience will last 70 minutes and include incredible music, an inspiring Christmas message, a time for communion, and candle lighting.

Honestly—come as you are. Freedom Church is a place where you don’t have to dress a certain way to belong. That said, many people enjoy dressing up a little for our Christmas gatherings, so feel free to join in if you’d like.

Freedom Church has a dynamic program for kids; however, Christmas gatherings are considered “family style.” Bring your older ones into the gathering with you. Freedom Kids is available for Nursery through PreK only. If this will be your child’s first visit to Freedom Kids, you can pre-register them online to make the check-in process fast and smooth. Upon arrival, all you’ll have to do is punch in your phone number at the kiosk and your child’s name tag and your claim tag will print for you. This will save you several minutes while checking in.

The main doors to our auditorium open 15 minutes prior to the start of each gathering. Be there early to grab some coffee or hot chocolate and be ready for the opening.

All gatherings at your campus will be the same, with one exception for the Bel Air campus. There will be no Freedom Kids for any age at the 11PM gathering in Bel Air. This unique gathering begins late but concludes at the perfect moment—right at midnight—allowing us to welcome in Christmas Day together. All you night owls, this one’s for you.

Yes! We will be online Monday, December 23 at 7:00PM, and December 24 at 3:00PM, 5:00PM, and 7:00PM. Click here to watch.
