The Music Jam 2008 was a party in Club Penguin. It began on July 25, 2008, and ended on August 5, 2008, although the party was originally scheduled to end on July 30. The free items at the party were a Music Jam T-Shirt, which were available at the Plaza, and a Pair of Maracas, which were available at the Cove. There were also some shirts themed with the different music stages available for members to buy at the Snow Forts, along with a Backstage Pass, which was required to get into the Back Stage. Each day, the Dock's main stage would change to a different style of music, such as classical or pop. An applause button was also added to the right of the Toolbar in every room.
