The music festival is part of the broader Live and Local program aimed at developing Manningham's live music scene.
Local musicians, venues and businesses are invited to participate in the program by joining our Manningham Music Database - a hub for future live music programming and performance opportunities.
Initiatives have included forums and workshops, as well as regular Live and Local meet-ups for members of the local live music industry to connect. The next meet-ups are scheduled for 9 October in Templestowe Lower and 6 November in Doncaster.
Live and Local is presented in partnership with the Live Music Office, One Music Australia and APRA AMCOS (the Australasian Performing Rights Association and Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society). It has also been assisted by the Australian Government through Music Australia.
