What is IMMERSION?
IMMERSION is a FREE SHOW. We’re going beyond what a typical family-friendly event looks like. Our goal is to immerse you in activities that you want to be a part of that will change your life.
For many of us building the event, we attended old-school concerts in Circleville at My:Fest which was held by Mission Youth in the 00’s. There were lots of things to do at these events, but with a huge gap in time, we’re reinventing what it means to spend a Saturday in Circleville.


Grub & Groove Circle
Get ready to FEAST. You won’t be leaving hungry—trust us. Eat at the Grub & Groove Circle, a place to chill, eat, and vibe to music. Food trucks will be serving up all kinds of food and ice-cold drinks. Smash some burgers, dive into sizzling tacos and smoky BBQ, grab a hot slice of pizza, or get ya some chicken wings for your go-to favorites. Craving something sweet? We’ve got ice cream, donuts, and southern-style sweet tea that hits just right. Oh—and fries. ALL the fries. This is just a taste of what’s waiting. Come hungry, leave legendary.

Mission Youth
Mission Youth Ohio is an organization born from experience. Many of us grew up in and around Circleville, attending local faith-based festivals, youth groups, and other formative events.
As we got older, we saw a need in the community to bring back the concerts and gatherings that had such a powerful impact on our lives—and the lives of those around us. If you lived in Circleville between 2000 and 2009, chances are you were at one of those shows.
We believe big events can make a big impact in the lives of youth and young adults. They can even help grown-ups remember the best parts of their youth, and how deeply faith shaped those experiences—especially for those who helped make them happen.
We’ve partnered with the original founder of Mission Youth, Mike Henderson, to bring this vision to life again.
Our goal is to offer events, services, and resources to the teens and young adults of our community in a lasting way—connecting them with music, the arts, other nonprofits, faith, and more—to give them something inspiring to experience and carry with them in Pickaway County, Ohio.
You can be part of this story, too. We hope you’ll join us as a volunteer at an event—because that’s how many of us started decades ago, not knowing just how important this kind of organization would become in our lives. Now, we’re excited to bring it back—and make it better than ever.
get excited.
Be apart of an amazing life changing event!
