Festival Bookers Virtual Speed Networking
The Music Managers Forum (MMF) Aotearoa is excited to announce that applications are now open for their annual Festival Bookers Speed Networking Sessions, which will take place on Wednesday 8th and Wednesday 15th May from 6pm - 8pm.
This unique event gives MMF members the opportunity to meet virtually with an outstanding line-up of bookers from some of the best music festivals in Aotearoa. The event is designed to facilitate the booking of artists into festivals, as well as receive first hand advice on how to get their artists booked onto festival line ups.
For 2024 the Virtual Speed Networking Sessions will be held over 2 nights, giving more MMF members the chance to take part. The sessions will be held on line on Wednesday 8th May and Wednesday 15th May.
Applications for the Festival Bookers Virtual Speed Networking sessions are open to MMF members only from today, Wednesday 3rd April, with a limited number of spots available. Applicants will be asked to provide a brief biography musical styles of their artist/s, links to their music and past live performances, as well as their preferred festival targets.
Applications close on Wednesday 10th April, with successful applicants notified by Monday 22nd April.
Please note that because it is a contestable application process, applying does not guarantee participation in the event.
The Festival Bookers Speed Networking sessions are just one of the events and initiatives that the MMF Aotearoa runs to support the music industry of Aotearoa. To learn more about the MMF Aotearoa and its work, or to join, visit their website at www.mmf.co.nz.
