On November 7, we raised more than $1.3 million in support of Berklee City Music students, with our Fund-A-Future live appeal bringing in over $400,000!
From extraordinary performances by Berklee students, faculty, staff, and alumni to an electrifying finale with Cimafunk & La Tribu, Amplify Berklee 2026 was a celebration to remember. This year, we introduced a new venue, a new format, and a whole new experience. Hosted by Boston Conservatory at Berklee assistant professor François Noel, the evening featured three ballroom stages as well as a cocktail reception and dinner program, showcasing the world-class talent of Berklee.
Proceeds from Amplify Berklee support scholarships for our students in Berklee City Music, a year-round, tuition-free music education program serving talented young people from under-resourced communities locally, nationally, and globally. Through contemporary music and the performing arts, the program helps students develop musically, academically, socially, and emotionally.
