The CSM Scholarship Concert  is an annual event where students who have gained scholarships have the opportunity to perform in front of their families and other scholarship winners.

The Christchurch School of Music has an extensive scholarship programme where a wide range of scholarships for all levels and genres is offered. The scholarships are established from bequests and donations from CSM alumni and supporters and are administered mainly by the Christchurch School of Music Support Trust. Students apply and are auditioned with consideration given to their commitment to the school and their music learning.
