2023 Junior Music Festival Chippendale

Junior Music Festivals offer young music students the opportunity to perform in a friendly, relaxed and encouraging environment. They are held in various locations throughout Sydney and also Newcastle and Wollongong. They are open to students of both members and non-members of the MTA.

Instead of being divided into age groups, Junior Music Festivals are divided into sections by the grade/ability of the performer. This means that all participants have a chance to shine and even win prizes, even late beginners. Any recognised Exam board grading system is acceptable.

Trophy prizes are awarded in all sections, with all participants receiving a Certificate of Participation and a report from the adjudicator. Entrants must be aged under 16 years of age as at 31 July. They may enter for more than one venue. (See Terms and Conditions for further details.)

Sunday 11 August 2024 9:30 AM - 5:00 PM (UTC+10)

CLOSING DATE FOR ENTRIES: 28 July 2024
NO LATE ENTRIES WILL BE ACCEPTED
