At the Oh Yeah Music Centre, we’re passionate about creating a vibrant, inclusive community where music brings people together. With projects that span all ages, abilities, and needs, we provide safe, welcoming spaces to connect, learn, and grow—both in our centre and through outreach that brings music into the heart of local communities
Community
& Outreach
Acoustic Picnic is our free monthly event that brings families together for a fun-filled day of live music, creativity, and connection. Especially loved by families with younger children (ages 6 and under), all are welcome to enjoy classic sing-alongs from the Over The Hill Collective, explore arts and crafts, play games or dance to the music.
We encourage you to bring your own picnic to enjoy, but you can also purchase snacks and hot drinks at the centre . Whether you're into music, art, or just looking for quality time with the family, Acoustic Picnic offers a joyful, creative escape for all ages.
Thanks to Belfast Harbour we are able to keep this event free.

Older People
This creative outreach programme uses music to reduce isolation, spark memories, and celebrate voices later in life. From workshops to performances, we connect older people with the joy of making and sharing music.
Oh Yeah’s Music & Older People Programme supports older adults through music, aiming to reduce isolation, spark memories, boost participation and celebrate voices later in life. Through workshops, performances, talks, and shared storytelling, we connect older people with the joy of making and sharing music, offering space for creativity, connection, and community. We’re proud to partner with organisations like Newington Day Centre, CLARE CIC, Golden Thread Gallery, and the Over the Hill Music Collective.
