                    Music in Melbourne


                    Melbourne is a global music capital with an inclusive and culturally diverse music culture. Our city leads the world in helping emerging and established musicians to be creative and self-reliant. Outward looking and entrepreneurial, Melbourne knows how to showcase its rich musical offering, including its unique, enduring and continually evolving Aboriginal culture and its broad mix of post-settlement cultural influences and genres. We export musical talent, ideas and technology around the world.

                    City of Melbourne is committed to supporting, growing and promoting our local music scene. We have just released our year three report for the Melbourne Music Plan 2018-2021.

                    Our plan for how we will support Melbourne’s music industry in the future is outlined in our Economic Development Strategy 2031 - 10 year plan for economic, social and cultural recovery for our city as it emerges from the impacts of COVID-19. Specifically music is highlighted under priority 2 - Creative Resurgence.
