Make Music Cedar Rapids is a new citywide celebration of live music held each year on June 21 as part of the global Make Music Day movement, which takes place in more than 1,000 cities worldwide. Musicians and non-musicians of all ages and experience levels are invited to perform in parks, on porches, inside local businesses, and throughout downtown and neighborhood districts.

All performances are free and open to the public. Coordinated by the City of Cedar Rapids in partnership with the City Music Task Force and local organizations, the event lowers barriers to participation, supports local musicians, and makes live music visible and accessible across the community.
