Active Parks: Music And Movement Program

Active Parks Music Program dates for 2026 - 2027

We are happy to announce that Music Beat Kids – the home of Boppin’ Babies – will continue to run free music and movement groups for babies and toddlers at Brisbane City Council parks from July 2026 to June 2027.

This activity has been funded by Brisbane City Council as part of Council’s Active and Healthy program. To find us search for ‘music and movement’ in the Search Events bar.

Come and enjoy the great outdoors with your little ones while you move and make music together. You will share a special time with other parents, while helping your little ones learn and grow through musical play and movement.

Take home tips for how to keep grooving and creating musical moments at home provided.
