Music is the most developed creative industry in Belize. There are more than 300 musicians in the country who produce a wide variety of music genres which include: punta, soca, reggae, reggaeton, hip hop, latin, boleros, cumbias, brukdown and pop.

The high season for live performances in country is closely linked to the tourist season and carnival time while most of the live performances outside the country are cultural exchanges or contracts at Belizean American organized events.
