Make Music Month 2025

City of Moreton Bay is set to turn up the volume this June with Make Music Month, a month-long celebration that will spotlight the incredible diversity of local musical talent.

Make Music Month provides a platform for local musicians to connect with their community and showcase their talents in a variety of creative ways. From live performances to workshops and jam sessions, the festival will take place across 16 of Council’s cultural venues, including libraries, museums, and galleries. 

The 2025 program will feature over 70 live gigs and 160+ musicians - covering a range of genres, from country to classical, folk to funk. Notable local artists and events include:

Trichotomy: Enjoy an evening of contemporary jazz at Arana Hills Library with global trailblazers Trichotomy.
