As 2025 comes to an end, we are thankful for all the supporters and partners who have made this a record-breaking year for Make Music Day.
- On June 21, 2025, Make Music Day featured over 5,471 concerts in the U.S., an all-time high, across 147 cities from coast to coast.
- The Make Music Alliance provided participants with 1,260 pairs of drumsticks, 80 pairs of mallets, 120 ukuleles, and 2,340 hand percussion instruments – all for free, so that anyone could participate.
- Roughly half a million people joined as performers, audience members, teachers and students.
- And thousands more concerts took place in Australia, Brazil, China, Cyprus, Ghana, Mexico, Nigeria, South Africa, Turkey, and the UK, in events all established through the Make Music Alliance.
While political forces pull communities and countries apart, Make Music Day continues to bring people together, across the ocean or across the street, to create connections and spread joy.
If you have enjoyed Make Music Day in any way – as a performer, host, or listener – or just love the concept, we invite you support the Make Music Alliance, the nonprofit organization that brings this celebration to the world.
Please consider a contribution to keep it going into 2026! Any amount, large or small, is very much appreciated.
