About QMF


Music brings people together, encourages participation and inspires change.
This makes music a critical tool in the effort to create a more cohesive, adaptive and vibrant society.


The QMF team is an expert collective, brought together by the shared belief that music’s potential value to our society is yet to be fully realised.


The programs we facilitate are typically partnerships between leading artists and arts organisations, local communities, government, corporate and philanthropic partners.


We like to think that we tie it all together.


The Opportunity


The Queensland Government established Queensland Music Festival in 1999, inspired by an ambitious vision of how a state wide biennial music festival might help address the geographical and social disadvantage experienced by our regional and remote populations and bring superb music to Queenslanders from all walks of life.


The Outcome


Queensland Music Festival brings leading artists and communities together to create music experiences that celebrate the cultural identity of people and places. Particularly for people living in regional and remote places, Queensland Music Festival offers access to and participation in world-class performing arts experiences, many of which are specially designed to inspire communities to celebrate their unique role in the story of Queensland.
