Many types of evangelical Protestants have revivals. But revivals are largely associated nowadays with Baptist or Pentecostal churches, or the so-called "non-denominational" churches.
Churches you probably won't ever see having revivals: Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Episcopalian, Unitarian.

Well revival is not really a Bible term. The concept developed in the 1800s, and really applied to the concept of the church influencing the world. Today the world seems to have much more influence on the church then the other way around and we call that apostasy. The Bible predicted that in the last days there would be a great apostasy come on the church and I don't think we're going to see revival again. The only kind of change we seem to see in the church to day is emotionalism not spiritualism.

Often churches "hold" revival services. But only a church seeking after God can "be" in revival.
I have only seen true revival in one Baptist church and one Pentecostal church.
The revival in the Baptist church lasted about 14 years, the Pentecostal about 2.
I am sure there have been many more but they are rare.

Churches that believe we should become "born again" christians. At revivals services, people are invited to the front of the church--to the alter--to kneel and pray for their sins and to become a christian--born again to be come a christian. To give up their sins of the world and lay them aside.

Many churches have revivals - Baptist and Methodist mostly from my experience.

basically any modern churches like non-denominational and penecostal and possibly baptist. this is all depending on how radical and not traditional the church is. this is only my opinion.
