Scania Sounds 2024 will take place between November 13 and 15 in Malmö, Sweden. This three-day event will be filled with conferences and activities designed to bring the music industry closer to the Scåne region. It’s an exciting opportunity for music professionals and fans alike.
What is Scania Sound Conference?
Scania Sounds conference highlights the musical talent and industry potential in the Scåne region. The first edition was held in November 2023, and it quickly became a platform for local artists to present themselves to key people in the music business. This year’s event aims to strengthen Malmö’s position on Sweden’s music map and attract more attention to Skåne’s vibrant creative sector.
Why Scåne?
Skåne has always been home to talented artists and creative industry professionals. However, many artists have moved to Stockholm or Gothenburg to be closer to the music industry. Scania Sounds wants to change this trend by showcasing what the region has to offer. With Malmö’s proximity to Copenhagen and the Öresund region, it’s an ideal location for music collaborations and partnerships with industries like film and gaming.
What to Expect?
During Scania Sounds, artists from the region will have the chance to perform in front of music industry professionals, including booking agents, record labels, and festival organizers. These performances, called showcases, will give artists the opportunity to make connections and take the next step in their careers.
The festival will also feature panel discussions, workshops, and networking events, offering attendees the chance to learn from industry experts and share ideas.
The festival promotes equality, diversity, and representation, ensuring everyone feels welcome. They have a strict no-tolerance policy for violence, threats, discrimination, or any form of harassment.
