The final step for MaMA Music & Convention! It's high time to unveil the complete Music & Convention program for the 15th edition.
ABOUT THIS 15th EDITION:
• Welcome to école ATLA!
A new room has been added this year. It will host the YOUROPE seminar, a free two-day event for festival organizers and music industry professionals to reflect on the themes of diversity, equity and inclusion. Several showcases will also be scheduled.
• MaMA Convention... New challenges and opportunities ahead!
On the Convention side, this year's MaMA Great Debates will focus primarily on international issues, discoverability and live music.
For this year's edition, the event is reorganizing its itineraries, offering visitors the chance to discover the various topics under seven headings: Artists, Management & Publishing, Recorded Music, Live Music, Cultural & Institutional Policies, Social Issues, Tech, and Environmental Issues.
In addition, a series of conferences, workshops and meetings will be offered by the event's partners (focus on a particular musical aesthetic, presentation of support and funding schemes, study results, etc.).
MaMA Music & Convention also confirms its international ambitions, with conferences covering several regions of the world. This year, while Europe is in the spotlight with the YOUROPE seminar, China will also be at the center of discussions, with panels on the specificities of its post-Covid music market.
MaMA Convention will also be highlighting collaborations between France and Africa or Brazil, studying the impact of the Russian invasion on the Ukrainian music scene, or the power of commitment of artists on the UK scene...
• On the music side, MaMA's 15th edition will focus more than ever on the international music scene, with this year's program featuring 40% international artists. The diversity of today's musical landscape remains a central element of the MaMA project, whether through the artistic selection or the professional collaborations that shape the showcases and partner evenings.
At the same time, club nights will be held at La Machine, an essential venue for electrifying nights out.
We'll let you in on the full program, and look forward to seeing you from October 16 to 18!
