Join the Worldwide Celebration of Music


The Australian Music Association has announced that Australia will once again take part in Make Music Day on Tuesday, 21 June 2022, joining 120 other countries worldwide on a day that celebrates making music. And some of our favourite musicians and artists are joining the campaign to get us all to express ourselves musically.

 

Kate Ceberano, Katie Noonan, Lee Kernaghan, Megan Washington, Catherine Alcorn, Jack Howard, Andy Baylor, Sarah Carroll, Lloyd Spiegel, Barry Conrad, Ruva and Bob Spencer are all Make Music Day Ambassadors, encouraging all Australians to take part in this global day of musical assembly.


Make Music Day was first launched in 1982 in France as the Fête de la Musique. It is now held on the same day in more than 1000 cities across 120 countries. In 2022 Make Music Day celebrates its 40th Anniversary and its fifth year in Australia.


Different from a typical music festival, Make Music Day is open to anyone who wants to take part - it’s a DIY Music Festival!


“We’re excited to give musicians of all levels the opportunity to create their own stage on Make Music Day. Making music we know is good for the mind, body and spirit, and we look forward to musicians everywhere performing in their communities and online on 21 June 2022,” said Co-ordinator of Make Music Day Australia, Rob Walker.

“By establishing one specific day each year to celebrate music, Make Music Day encourages amateur and professional musicmaking and empowers individuals to seek ways to celebrate music in their community.”


Every kind of musician — young and old, amateur and professional, of every musical persuasion — can organise their own gig or join the many organisations that will host events to share their music with friends, neighbours, and strangers.


All of it is free and open to the public and can be held online or face to face at locations across cities and towns. Anyone wishing to participate can simply organise a performance and register it at makemusicaustralia.org.au.
