As the name suggests, Women in Music is an industry event that aims at giving a spotlight on the developments and role of women in the global music industry, although technically not a music conference. If you are an independent artist who wants to see the significant role women play in the music industry, then it is highly recommended that you should join and attend this event. It is an incredible organization with the primary goal of advancing awareness, diversity, equality, opportunities, heritage, and cultural aspects of women in the industry.

This is done through education, recognition, support, and empowerment. They also host events throughout the United States all year long. Their panels, seminars, showcases, awards, achievements, and youth initiatives celebrating the female contribution to the music world.

The world’s biggest new music showcase festival is like a Rorschach test: with 1000 artists performing over a week, it means something different to everyone (and if you’re taking it on, you’re probably a bit crazy). SXSW turns Austin into a musical playground, with shows crammed into every nook and cranny in the city. It’s an experience like no other.

An established favourite for the drum and bass scene, Rampage transforms its home in the Antwerp Sportspaleis into a high-octane rave, soundtracked by some of the genre’s biggest stars and heaviest hitters.
