Make Music Day Wisconsin - Friday, June 21,, 2024
Happening in 22 communities throughout the state
Launched in 1982 in France as the Fête de la Musique, Make Music Day is celebrated on the same day in more than 1,000 cities in dozens of countries around the world. Make Music Day takes place each year on the summer solstice, June 21.
Completely different from a typical music festival, Make Music is open to anyone who wants to take part. Every kind of musician — young and old, amateur and professional, of every musical persuasion — pours onto streets, parks, plazas, and porches to share their music with friends, neighbors, and strangers. All of it is free and open to the public.
Make Music Day involves musicians, bands, orchestras, soloists, and ensembles - some professional, most "just regular people," making music in-person and virtually, all completely free and open to all. Make Music Day showcases a diverse array of styles and genres, from classical and jazz to blues, folk, pop, rock, rap, hip-hop, and world music. Coffee shops, restaurants, retail shops, performance spaces, centers of worship, city halls, day care and senior centers, front porches, parks, and other locations in cities and small towns fill with music for everyone to enjoy.
