Angels in the Sky Soars at NRB 2026 in Nashville with Pat Boone and Team
February 18–20, 2026 | NRB International Christian Media Convention | Nashville, TN
Angels in the Sky was honored to be prominently represented at the 2026 National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) International Christian Media Convention, held at the Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center in Nashville.
NRB is the world’s largest annual gathering of Christian communicators, broadcasters, filmmakers, ministry leaders, and digital media professionals. With thousands in attendance from across radio, television, film, and online platforms, the convention serves as a major hub for collaboration, networking, and advancing faith-based media worldwide.
This year, Angels in the Sky was powerfully represented by:
Pat Boone – Legendary entertainer and longtime supporter of the project
Mike Flint – Executive Producer
Ed Kugler – Project advocate
Dana McElwain – GM, Pat Boone Enterprises and production team member
A highlight of the convention was Pat Boone receiving a prestigious Board of Directors Award during the event. In addition to his formal recognition, Pat generously spent significant time at the Angels in the Sky booth meeting attendees, signing autographs, and sharing his passion for the story in interviews with Christian media outlets.
The booth attracted strong interest throughout the convention as attendees learned about the extraordinary true story behind the film — the volunteer pilots of the 101 Squadron who helped secure the survival of the newborn State of Israel in 1948.
NRB 2026 featured keynote speakers, media workshops, a Pitch-a-thon for film and television projects, and a large exhibit hall dedicated to advancing Christian communication across every major platform. The presence of Angels in the Sky at this global media gathering represents an important step forward in expanding awareness and building strategic partnerships for the film.
We are grateful for the conversations, encouragement, and industry connections made during these three impactful days in Nashville. Momentum continues to build as we work toward bringing this powerful story to audiences around the world.
Stay tuned for more updates — and thank you to everyone who stopped by the booth to show their support.
