How It Works
Reach the World Day is a global evangelistic outreach held on Saturday, December 12, 2026, our third annual! For one incredible day, we invite guests to theaters, churches, small groups, and homes worldwide to experience the transformative story of Jesus’ birth, Why the Nativity?. This year, free theatrical showings are coming to 7 U.S. cities, and the film is available to stream in 21 languages.
Participation is free. The film is provided free of charge to audiences worldwide. For theatrical showings, tickets are complimentary. You, your friends, family, and neighbors are invited to request free tickets to a theater near you.
You don’t have to be a church to host! Open your home, small group, or church for a showing. All it takes is a screen, a few chairs, and an invitation. Sign up today, download the promotional materials, and join us in spreading the hope of Christ this Christmas!
