Gifts in Will

Why leave a gift to QMF?

A gift in your Will is a powerful way to create a legacy through music.

By supporting Queensland Music Festival, you help bring extraordinary musical experiences to regional and remote communities, champion First Nations and local artists, improve access to the arts and connect people across generations. 

Your generosity helps ensure more Queenslanders can experience the joy, belonging and opportunities that music creates for years to come.
