About
Launched in 1982 in France as the Fête de la Musique, Make Music Day is celebrated on the same day in more than 1,000 cities in dozens of countries around the world. It takes place each year on the summer solstice, June 21.
Completely different from a typical music festival, Make Music is open to anyone. Every kind of musician — young and old, amateur and professional, and of every musical persuasion. It involves a diverse array of talents, styles, genres, knowledge, and musical interests.
All are invited to share their love of music with friends, neighbors, and visitors. It is free and open to the public.
Let’s celebrate the musician in everyone! Join us on Saturday, June 21, 2025.
Sign up to participate as a musician or host.
Make Music Georgetown is organized by The Granite, Inc., a nonprofit community event space in the heart of Georgetown.
