Leicester Music Conference

The third edition of the Leicester Music Conference will see it expanding across two major city venues and the introduction of a bold new Creative Industry Expo.

There will panels, practical workshops, demonstrations and networking opportunities designed to supercharge the region’s talent pipeline.

The live music showcase will bring together standout talent from across the city’s vibrant music scene and nationally recognised artists for a mix of performances, new voices, genre-spanning sets and collaborations.

Exhibitors include Sontronics, ROLI, Digit Music, Voyager, Meesha Graphics, Leicester Fashion District, TiME: Table of Music Tech, Tonic Music, Soundstrokes and the Independent Society of Musicians.

There will be workshops on mic usage and studio practice to get the best from equipment; advice on looking after mental wellbeing in the industry and a ‘Meet the Funders’ drop-in with Arts Council England, Help Musicians, and the Step Up Fund. The Music Managers Forum will be offering advice, professional development and industry insight for emerging and established managers.

There will also be a look at Leicester’s growing creative fashion ecosystem and opportunities for collaboration between music and design
