Thank you for a successful 2019 Queensland Youth Music Awards! We're delighted to announce entries are now open for 2020! Click here to view the 2020 preliminary schedule and please note, venues are continuing to be confirmed.
Origins of Queensland Youth Music Awards (QYMA) stem back to 1966 - 1967 when the event began, run by a small committee supported by Ashgrove and The Gap Methodist Churches.
The management of the event extended to Uniting Church Parishes in 1977, before changing hands and becoming The Pine Rivers Music Contest for Primary and Secondary Schools in 1994.
QYMA is now managed by Voices of Birralee, a leading Australian, Brisbane-based non-profit child and youth choral organisation.
It now caters for around 200 ensembles and choirs from different schools throughout South East Queensland, making it one of the largest school music eisteddfods in our state.
Now one of the most anticipated music events of the school year, QYMA maintains its original ethos of giving young people the opportunity to make music in a supportive environment.
