The Queensland Youth Orchestras (QYO) train the state’s best young orchestral musicians, aged 8 to 25 years. On Saturday 6 June, the QYO turns 60 and it’s inviting all of Brisbane to come join the party at The Old Museum, Bowen Hills.

Brisbane music lovers will be welcomed into the rehearsal rooms of eight different orchestras including the Junior String Ensembles, Wind Symphony, Big Band and the Queensland Youth Symphony. Pop up chamber groups will be performing in the garden and a range of children’s activities and food options will be available. For families with young children, The Old Museum’s Concert Hall is where they can enjoy performances of Peter and the Wolf and The Carnival of the Animals.

Please note: some performances require registration and there is a fee for admission to the evening’s Alumni Concert.
