The Braddon Busking Hub aims to bring a vibrant culture of busking back to Braddon.
Working closely with place-makers and artists, this pilot program will enrich Canberra's bustling Braddon with music and create more opportunities for artists to gain revenue and performance opportunities.
This program is devised by musicians with busking experience in Canberra and beyond.
By encouraging buskers to perform in Braddon, we aim to activate public places and showcase our wonderful and talented artists to the Canberra community.
Busking can be a fantastic source of revenue for artists, and also an avenue to develop and fine-tune performance skills and reach a broad audience.

Create a free account on Busk.co.
This is an approved, tested and fantastic website that will allow you to receive electronic payments.
To accept electronic payments via a QR code when busking you will need to register for a payment portal (Paypal, Stripe etc).
Once you receive your QR code from Busk.co, we will ask you to send it to us.
Our team will then use it to create an official sign, that we will send to you free of charge, that you will be able to display when busking.
With your sign, you will also receive an electronic welcome pack, that gives you all the information you need to begin busking in Braddon!
