Donate to the Festival

Support a Concert: $6,000+

Concert Supporters bring music to the stage. Whether it is your favourite composer, a much-loved classic or a bold new work, make your mark on the Festival by supporting the music that means something to you. When the artists walk onstage, you will know your support has made something extraordinary possible.

Support an individual commission or contribute to our Commissioning Circle A Major Lift. 

A Major Lift is CIMF’s donor circle, created to support the commission of bold new music to be premiered at the Festival.  Joining A Major Lift will give you the opportunity to contribute to the creation of new music and join a community of donors who champion composers to grow the Australian art music repertoire. You will also be invited to a special ‘Meet the Composer’ event along with your fellow commissioners.

Donations to our Audience Fund can be made at any time of the year and are directed to where these funds will make the biggest difference. We have lots of ideas about how we can enhance the festival experience and with your help we can make them a reality.

You can support our Audience Fund by making a one-off donation or a regular pledge. Whether you give $10, $20 or $100 your donation is an investment in our Festival’s future.
