This study discusses the outcomes of experiential learning derived from the MBKM internship program conducted at Flow Music GBI Rumah Persembahan, Medan. The internship was carried out over eleven meetings (27.5 hours) during the period of October–December 2024, with activities including music instruction, administrative tasks, and event management. Data were obtained through direct practice, observation, and reflection. The results indicate an improvement in musical competence, particularly in piano and guitar performance skills, as well as an enhanced understanding of teaching methods appropriate to students of various age groups. In addition, students gained experience in music education administration, such as course scheduling, musical instrument inventory management, and document organization. The internship also contributed to the development of soft skills, including communication, time management, discipline, and problem-solving abilities. These findings confirm the importance of internship programs as a bridge between theory and practice while preparing students for professional careers in the field of music education. In conclusion, a structured internship not only strengthens technical and pedagogical skills but also shapes holistic readiness to face the creative industry
