Make Music Day is a free celebration of music making, that takes place around the world each year on 21 June.

Launched in 1982 in France as the Fête de la Musique, it is now held on the same day in more than 750 cities in 120 countries. While it is completely different from a typical music festival, Make Music Day is open to anyone who wants to take part and is considered a DIY music festival!

Every kind of musician — all ages, experience, and musical persuasion are invited to participate.

Make Music Day is back in the City of Canada Bay, bringing live music and entertainment to the community.

From 21 June to 30 July, enjoy Make Music: Sounds in the Lounge, a new live music series in Rhodes featuring local performers.

The celebration continues with a pilot street performance permit program running from May to October 2026, giving performers the opportunity to showcase their talents at six designated locations across Canada Bay.

Whether you're performing or watching, there's never been a better time to experience live music in Canada Bay.
