Jesus the Christ, the world-renowned Mesa Easter Pageant, is an outdoor musical production depicting the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is the largest annual outdoor Easter pageant in the world with a cast of more than 400 and many more volunteering behind the scenes. Over 100,000 people of different faiths and beliefs see it every year.

This free event takes place on the beautiful grounds of the Mesa Arizona Temple. The Pageant has been a tradition in Mesa for 87 years and is a gift to the community from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The current soundtrack used in the spectacular production debuted in 2022 and was written and composed by Rob Gardner and recorded by the London Symphony Orchestra and Spire Chorus.
