Eco Echo Music Fest 2025
The Eco Echo Youth Music Festival is an exciting new event that celebrates the musical talents of young people across the South Canterbury region. This festival brings together primary and secondary school bands to perform, connect, and showcase their music in a supportive and vibrant community space.
Not only is this a celebration of music, but it’s also a fundraiser for the South Canterbury Eco Youth – a youth led initiative established last year to amplify the voices of youth in the environmental, biodiversity, and sustainability space. Eco Youth provides opportunities for young people to engage in environmental projects, build a deeper connection with nature, and take action that benefits both the community and the planet. All entry fees from this festival will go directly toward supporting these initiatives. We encourage every school to get their bands involved in this incredible event!
