Bydgoszcz Music Summit 2024 | ENG

Bydgoszcz Music Summit 2024 | 02-03.12.2024

We are pleased to announce: Bydgoszcz Music Summit. This is a two-day event of international importance, aimed at shaping the future of the European music industry. Our ambition is to create a framework for an industry guideline document, as well as to develop guidelines to support the consistent development of the music business sector at the European level. With the presence of experts, industry leaders and decision-makers, we look forward to fruitful discussions and exchanges.

We will spend the first day (02.12) working intensively behind closed doors with our experts from all over Europe, who will be working to show the results of this work the next day. But we invite you to join us for an interesting meeting with representatives of Music Cities from all over via live streaming from 3 to 6 p.m. Coordinators of cities such as London (Canada), Mannheim (Germany), Idanha-a-Nova (Portugal), Brno (Czech Republic), Hannover (Germany), and Norrkoping (Sweden) will talk about their music city branding strategy.

During the second day (03.12.), it will be possible to participate in the conference already on site, in the cinema and auditorium at MCK. Places is limited, so those who wish to attend, please register through the form available below.
