Stanmore Music Festival

An annual community music festival in Sydney’s Inner West suburb of Stanmore was always a wish of the late Richard Gill, a renowned Australian musician, conductor and educator. In early 2019 a small group of people led by Simon Chapman began working with Richard’s wife Maureen, the Stanmore business community and the Inner West Council to bring this event to fruition.

We are delighted the Inner West Council has helped us make Richard’s wish a reality.

A not-for-profit association was also formed to work with Inner West Council to organise and administer this free festival, together with several committees with local volunteers who have generously donated their time and expertise.
