Where did it originate?
Part of a global movement that began in France as Fête de la Musique, Make Music Day celebrates the creativity, diversity, colour, and energy that define the city as a UNESCO City of Music.

Building on the success of 2025, this year’s carefully curated program showcases both iconic city music venues and unexpected locations. More than 360 individual artists in 107 acts from solo performers and bands to choirs and community groups will transform venues, cafes, bars, galleries, bookstores and public spaces into live performance stages and dance floors.

We'd love to thank the City of Adelaide for their support of local artists and venues through this great initiative.

Qi means energy, and Gong means cultivation. Qigong is a way of cultivating your energy through mindful movement, breathwork and meditative practice.

These welcoming Saturday morning Qigong classes led by senior instructor Sarah Divine, offer a steady and accessible way to calm the mind, nourish the body and restore your energy through Taoist movement, breathwork and meditation. 

Suitable for beginners and continuing students, the course combines ancient Qigong practices with modern movement understanding to help improve mobility, emotional balance, grounding and overall wellbeing.

Diverse-City is a welcoming and fully inclusive air conditioned, carpeted space with drinks and food available after class.

Please wear comfortable clothing to allow movement. 

Everyone welcome.

During a hellish thunderstorm, a scream echoes through the sleepy town of Ravenswood Bluff. The townsfolk rush to investigate and find the beloved local storyteller has been murdered, their body hanging limp from the clocktower.

As blood drips onto the cobblestones below, a realisation slowly dawns… a demon has been unleashed, killing by night and taking on human form by day. Can good find the demon in time? Or will evil overrun this once peaceful town?

A social game played in person, seated in a circle, each player receives either a ‘good’ or ‘evil’ token with their unique character on it. Good players share information to solve the mystery whilst evil players lie about who they are and what they know.

The good team wins if they can piece together their knowledge, trust each other, and execute the demon. The evil team wins if the demon can sow distrust, evade detection, and wipe out the town.
