We are attending

SPOT is an internationally recognized festival in Aarhus, showcasing and creating a platform for the latest trends in Danish and Nordic music. SPOT Festival has been unfolding in the very heart of Aarhus since 1994.

We are part of a Nordic-Baltic Live Ecosystem project that is funded by the Live DMA network to strengthen our ties, share our skills and knowledge with our neighbours. 

During the project we will visit showcase festivals in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Estonia having meetings, workshops and panel discussions during those visits. Each project partner has brought a focus topic to focus on: 

At SPOT in Denmark, we will focus on supporting grassroots venues.

At by:Larm in Norway, we will focus on the implications of private funding replacing public funding and map the different funding schemes in each country.

At Viva Sounds in Sweden, we will discuss what constitutes a sustainable business model for concert promoters. 

At Music x Media in Finland, we will work on strategies for operating from the periphery. 

The final meeting will take place at Tallinn Music Week in Estonia, where we will examine the current status of audience safety and security across the participating countries.
