Music in the Rockies was a week-long festival, with a combination of seminars, competitions, concerts, and events related to Contemporary Christian Music, other kinds of Christian music, and the Christian music business industry. It has been replaced by a new event called Immerse.
The event started in 1975 as Seminar in the Rockies, launched by Christian Artists' Corp's president Cam Floria.
In 2000, the Gospel Music Association (GMA) began to take over the event.
In 2004, they changed the event's name to GMA Music in the Rockies.
The event/festival was previously held at YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colorado.
Both "Music in the Rockies" and "Seminar in the Rockies" had a series of concerts in the evenings, with some notable performers and attendees. The 34th annual event was held from August 3 to August 9, 2008.
In 2009, the event was replaced by a new event called Immerse.
Immerse is put on by the Gospel Music Association and LifeWay Christian Resources.
Immerse features a series of seminars. It also has a competition section that is broken down into several categories, and an overall winner is determined. It is held in the United States in Nashville, Tennessee.
Numerous national recording artists have performed at, competed at, or attended the event.
