We are LIVE! Make Music Murfreesboro

Get ready to celebrate the sound of summer.

Make Music Murfreesboro will take place on June 21, 2026, the longest day of the year. On this special day, Murfreesboro will come alive with free outdoor music performances and musical activities for all ages and genres.

What is Make Music Day?

Make Music Day is a free music celebration  like no other! The original and now-world-wide day of music began in 1982 in Franceas Fête De La Musique (the name meaning is “make music”). Held on the summer solstice, the longest day of the year, any and everyone is invited to join, play music, or host performances. Four decades later, this has spread throughout the world and is now celebrated in more than 1,000 cities in 120 different countries!

This year, Make Music Murfreesboro transforms public spaces across the county into welcoming performance spots where amateurs and professionals alike share music with friends and neighbors. Sidewalks, parks, storefronts, and community gathering places become stages for creativity, connection, and live music-making.

A Day for Everyone

• Musicians of all skill levels and styles
• Businesses and organizations interested in hosting performances or activities
• Community groups looking to add music experiences to their spaces
• Families and music lovers ready to explore and enjoy live music throughout the county.

We are currently seeking partnerships with Downtown Murfreesboro organizations and businesses interested in hosting performances or coordinating music-related activities. Participation helps activate spaces across the community while supporting local artists and creating shared experiences for residents and visitors alike.  Sign Up Here to participate.
