Triple J presenter and all-round powerhouse Lucy Smith returns as your host, joined by comedian/presenter Nat Damena. The Musica Copa Soundsystem will be soundtracked by a number of special guests from the UNDR Ctrl agency with our buddies Mary’s Burgers returning to host a bespoke food menu for the day, including veggie & vegan dishes.

Last year Sony Music took home the Division 1 championship trophy and $25,000 for their charity Deadly Science, NLV Records triumphed in Division 2 winning $15,000 for Heaps Decent and Campari took home the Division 3 crown and $10,000 for FNPW.

For the 3rd year running Musica Copa continues to support the Justin Cosby Scholarship; an annual Arts & Entertainment Management scholarship partnered with the Australian Institute of Music (AIM) to honour Justin’s legacy. Rather fittingly, Justin was the recipient of Musica Copa’s Fair Play award prior to his passing in 2021, and in 2022 we introduced the inaugural Justin Cosby Fair Play Award to pay our own respects. Over the past 2 years we have proudly raised over $22,000 for the Scholarship and we look forward to contributing more essential funding for many years to come.

Special thanks go to our amazing partners Better Beer, Chivas Regal, Heaps Normal, KIKOFF, Macquarie University, Mary’s, Music & Booze Co, Nike, Red Bull, Sportsblock and Ultra Football, without whom these events would not be possible.

On Friday 21st February 2025 Musica Copa begins a new era at Sky Park — the brand new Sydney FC Centre of Excellence located on the Macquarie University Fields.

Musica Copa is the beloved charity 5-a-side football tournament for the music industry that has been kicking goals and raising money for many deserving charities since 2013. The footy fundraiser features 36 top tier companies from the Australian music industry, split into 3 divisions of 12 teams. The winning teams will share $50,000 in prize money for their nominated charities, which will put the total amount raised for charity over the past decade close to $250,000.     

Musica Copa is the brainchild of UNDR Ctrl Founder & CEO Paul Stix and his ex-partner Martin Novosel (Purple Sneakers). Since its inception with a humble 10 teams, Musica Copa has firmly established itself as one of the most eagerly awaited events on the Australian music calendar and a networking event like no other.

Over the years, Musica Copa has attracted a festival sized line-up of musicians/players on the pitch including Alex the Astronaut, Bag Raiders, Cosmo’s Midnight, Crooked Colours, DMA’S, Kwame, Flight Facilities, G Flip, Gang Of Youths, Just A Gent, Krewella, Matt Okine, Montaigne, Motez, Nina Las Vegas, Ruel, Set Mo, The Rubens, What So Not, WILLO, Winston Surfshirt and Young Franco to name a few. From the soccer community we’ve welcomed Fox Sports host Adam Peacock, Socceroo legend Brett Emerton, and Matildas and W-League players Gabe Marzano, Emily Shields, Leena Khamis, Sham Khamis and Chantelle Symes.
