VIVA CONFERENCE 24

Welcome to Viva Conference 24, in Gothenburg. We'll run heavy during Thursday 28th and Friday 29th of November - while the music will be live and loud over all three nights.

This year's Viva Sounds conference offers a street-level dive into the world of independent music, featuring panels, interviews, and workshops, with bags full of experiences and insights. Explore the world of sync licensing, the challenges of the US live market, and the pivotal role of indie entrepreneurs and labels from a ground-up perspective. Gain a behind-the-scenes look at Partisan Records’ release journey for IDLES' album TANGK, and hear from the legendary Simon Williams in our keynote interview about his journey from NME to Fierce Panda and his book Pandamonium! How to Not Run a Record Label. Don’t miss practical workshops on engaging your fans and mastering YouTube, plus valuable insights into the Scandinavian market.

Plus, and probably the most important, this is where you can meet the people you'll be doing fun stuff with moving forward. This is our time, your time, our thing, the we-thing, this is where we meet. Get into it, bring a smile, an open mind and get ready to catch new music, new knowledge and new friends.
You're welcome!
