Esports Stadium Arlington

As Allies celebrates 15 years of serving orphaned and vulnerable children around the world, Color Their World is returning to one unified event experience — bringing guests together again for one unforgettable evening of worship, storytelling, and impact.

After several years of hosting two separate banquet nights, this year’s event creates a shared experience in one powerful venue designed to inspire, connect, and bring the mission of Allies to life in a whole new way.

Through immersive visuals, meaningful stories, and moments of worship, guests will see how more than 27,000 children in 92 countries are being seen, loved, and set free through the power of consistent relationships.
