RockCan is a platform for young people with and without disability to showcase their musical talents.
This year's event will be held at Mittagong RSL Club on Saturday, September 21 from 3pm.
Many of our clients share a passion for music and the Interchange Australia music program offers people the opportunity to join a band, learn to sing and play an instrument.
They also learn stagehand skills and performance techniques. Music program participants rehearse weekly under the guidance of skilled Interchange Australia staff who have years of experience teaching music and playing in local bands.

The Hidden Wonders, a band consisting of Interchange Australia clients and support staff, have headlined RockCan since its inception.
The band's performance improves each year and this is attributable to the new skills each participant learns as a result of the music program.
RockCan 2019 will see the debut of our new band from our Narellan Campus, Under the Radar, as well as a new girl group Strawberry Jam.
The essence of RockCan is the participation, the interaction and the experience that comes with being part of organising and performing in a large music event.
RockCan is a much anticipated event on the local music calendar and attendance has grown each year.
Interchange Australia's RockCan is more than just a concert, it's a learning experience.
Over the years, we have had clients involved in creating and recording songs and videos to assist in the promotion of the vent.
Our aim is that with the support of RockCan and the music program, clients with an interest in music, production and performance may pursue their passion and pursue a career in this field.
Tickets to RockCan 2019 are $20 for the show only and are available to purchase from the Interchange Australia office in Bowral, The Interchange Australia Narellan Campus and from The Mittagong RSL Club either before the event or from the box office on the night of the show.
