Music MAYnia 2024!

What is Music MAYnia?

Music MAYnia is an annual music performathon and community festival. Held on the first Sunday in May, Music MAYnia is free and open to the public and features live music, games & activities, food trucks, and more. Student performers of all ages and abilities perform live continuous music (ranging from classical to rock) on four stages. It’s a popular music festival that many community members attend—and look forward to—every year.


For Students:

  • Thank you to everyone who has signed up to perform! We’ll let you know when the performer schedule has been finalized. As always, you are the ones who make this event a-MAY-zing!
  • The Music MAYnia t-shirt this year is YELLOW! T-shirts will be available to pick up a few days before the event in the front office, or at the check-in tent on the day of MAYnia. Please wear your t-shirt at MAYnia! (If you pick up your t-shirt ahead of time, you do not need to stop at the check-in tent.)
  • We encourage all participants to ride the free shuttle bus from downtown Winchester. More details coming soon!

For Volunteers:

  • Please join us as a volunteer! We rely on dozens of generous people who do everything from setting up chairs to greeting visitors to running activities. As a volunteer, you’ll be at the center of this fun-filled community event and will receive free lunch and a MAYnia t-shirt!

For Family, Friends & Visitors:

  • Save the date on your calendar!
  • Help us get the word out by putting a lawn sign in your yard; stop by the front office to pick one up.
  • A full schedule of events will be posted as soon as it is available, including ensemble performance times and instrument demo times.
  • We encourage all participants to ride the free shuttle bus from downtown Winchester. More details coming soon!

For Community Partners and Sponsors:

  • The success of Music MAYnia is due in part to the generous support of numerous businesses in our community.
