MUSIC!EXISTS was first a thought halfway through 2023. The goal of MUSIC!EXISTS was, (and still is), to create an accessible and free event to showcase young bands and artists from the area, and also promote and encourage people to get involved in the music scene in the Clutha district. The first MUSIC!EXISTS was held in April, 2024 and was mainly focused around opportunities for young musicians, however I am working on opening up more opportunities in the surrounding areas such as photography/videography, stage management, lighting, and sound. Through MUSIC!EXISTS I also want to encourage young people to take the step into the music scene by showing what it can turn into; for rangatahi or people just starting out in music.

2025 sees Unifone coming onboard as a sponsor, if you are interested in hopping onboard alongside them to support the objective of making this a free event please feel free to reach out.
