The EU conference on music: “Challenges, needs and opportunities of the European music ecosystem” takes place on 22 February 2024, in the Charlemagne building of the European Commission, in Brussels.

Iliana Ivanova, European Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth will open the event.

The European Commission organises the conference in the context of the ongoing dialogue with the music sector that started in 2023, as part of the Music Moves Europe initiative (MME). After the Covid-19 crisis, the European Commission decided to strengthen the dialogue with the music sector, to help the music sector coordinate and speak with one voice when it comes to EU policy matters.

Music Moves Europe dialogue: 10 dialogue sessions and 2 conferences
A consortium of well-established music event organisations implements the MME dialogue. The initiative consists of 10 sessions at music conferences and two conferences, organised by the European Commission.

This first conference addresses the challenges, needs and opportunities in the European music ecosystem, and how the European Union and its members can provide support through policy measures, regulatory measures, funding, and dialogue facilitation.
