The Live Music Office will be co presenting two sessions –
1 August: Regional Music Policy Makers Forum
Time: 2.00pm – 5.00pm
A forum for those developing music policies and implementing live music initiatives beyond our major cities. We survey what’s working, what the data tells us, what’s needed, and opportunities, particularly for networked action. The forum explores good transferrable initiatives, the potential for regional city music strategies, offers access to best practice thinking, and highlights innovative approaches in regional areas.
2 August: Audience Development for Live Music
Time: 10.15am – 11.15am
Developing audiences and public engagement is central to music sector growth, where tomorrow’s fans are developed today. There are significant opportunities – and a need -to broaden demand for music consumption. Conference ticketing partner Moshtix, together with Live Performance Australia, share the latest data, we examine the biggest issues and challenges and explore collaborative marketing and other proactive approaches.
