Transforming Lives & Communities
For over 20 years, Queensland Music Festival has delivered the gift of music to over a million people across more than 100 locations throughout Queensland.
Since its inception, Queensland Music Festival has grown from a biennial state-wide festival of music, to a creator of annual festivals and events, producing over 800 live music experiences for the 2019 Festival. By its geography, length, participation and attendance, Queensland Music Festival is the largest live music festival in the world.
Over three weeks in July, Queensland Music Festival unfolded a unforgettable musical journey through the cities, regions and remote corners of Queensland. From the large outdoor opera experience to intimate and bespoke concerts, world premieres, and mass community participation projects, Queensland Music Festival offers a unique festival experience like no other.
2019 marks the 20th anniversary of Queensland Music Festival. This very special festival program commemorates two decades of transformational music experiences. View the 2019 Programme here.
We invite you to relive the glorious musical journey of the 2019 Queensland Music Festival and check out all the highlights here.
