Mix It Up

Free Music Events Curated to Connect Communities and Cultures

Since music is tied closely with culture, we wanted to use the communal powers of music to bring people from different communities together through their shared passion for live music. We thoughtfully curate free live music events to provide the general public with the opportunity to explore several different genres of music and to connect with different cultures. We want our artist showcases to give attendees a mini-music festival experience!

Mix It Up Multi-Genere Music Showcases

Our program provides the general public with free, multi-genre concerts at independent music venues featuring alumni from our Play It Forward Sessions Program. We also provide a free, family-friendly festival series called Celebrate Music City that highlights several genres, including R&B and Hip Hop, Rock, and Latin music.

Celebrate Music City Festival Series

This community-focused festival series provides Nashville with free, family-friendly concerts that showcase and embrace the diversity of our city's culture and music communities. Each festival features a dance lesson, artisan craft vendors, food trucks, and live original music. We believe amazing live music is one of the best ways to bring different people together and build a stronger, more vibrant Music City for all.
