Keynote Speakers
Voices of Reason in a World Gone Mad
Every year, we look for the best and brightest speakers to grace the stage at FreedomFest. This year, our theme "Where Is the Voice of Reason" is making that search even more important.
Who are the voices, and where are the ideas and solutions to help us restore sanity to a world that seems to have gone mad?
In politics, economics, business, the media, technology, healthcare and healthy living, the arts and much more, we look forward to bringing you the "voices of reason" that will stir your minds and inspire your hearts for the future.

George Will
Two Heavy-Hitting "Voices of Reason"
We are delighted to welcome two of the most significant "voices of reason" in the world today:
George Will (in his first ever appearance at FreedomFest) has been called "the world's most powerful journalist" by The Wall Street Journal
And Judge Andrew Napolitano (back by popular demand at FreedomFest this year) is perhaps the most powerful and eloquent defender of the constitution and civil liberties in the world today.
You don't want to miss a single word either of these men will have to say at FreedomFest 2018.
