This is the one day of the year when the rehearsal door is thrown wide open and you are welcome to step inside for a real-time, real-life experience of what happens as our young musicians learn, listen, work together and finetune their craft. This is a unique way to introduce children to the world of making orchestral music.

Come and go as you please across the day and the different rehearsal spaces.

See another side to our talented young musicians as they break out into small ensembles and entertain, impromptu-style.

Wander through our beautiful heritage gardens and find a spot to relax and soak up the sunshine.

There will be no shortage of entertainment to enjoy! Grab delicious food, refreshing drinks and maybe even a sweet treat like fairy floss while you explore. Get your souvenirs at our merch stall or try out instruments with Brisbane’s best suppliers.

If you’re looking to join QYO our team will be able to answer all of your questions at our information stalls.

Bring your little ones along for a fun day out. Try out some colouring in or perhaps face painting while you’re in between events.
