I just posted news about the upcoming edition. There are significant changes. For one thing, prices have been slashed to €100/day for a pro pass. It will run Jan 29-31. And perhaps of greater significance, their partner this year is Live Nation, who will most likely bring a higher level of management than the previous two editions. Details here: https://cannes-or-bust.com/2024/10/midem-2025-back-to-the-future/ I know no more than this. More will follow.

I have made a calculated business move to MICANNES, which will happen in June in Cannes. I can no longer accept the non-communication and non-interest in companies that are not French.

Hi Alan. Are you referring to the Cannes Lions advertising fair?

No, I am referring to MICANNES (www.micannes.com)

Allan, the site is down. Is the event still going ahead?

I was told that the website was under construction for 2025. Several different venues have been reserved and I have seen the preliminary schedule. As soon as I get more information, I will quickly pass it on.

Thanks Allen. This looks like a better option though wd like to see the registration dbase from ladt year. If they are not working the music export offices from other countries they are still missing the b

On the subject of trade fairs, Mama in Paris should be on your radar: https://mama-musicandconvention.com/en/

There are nearly 40 members in this group. Feel free to say what brings you to Midem - what do you have to offer, what connection would you like to make? By the way, even if you are not going net year, this is a place to network.

Just one more month to the Midem conference and there is NO information about the conference at all. I have established a new forum for MICANNES 2025. Their website is up, admission is currently only £75, and the initial schedule has been created. I will have three separate showcases at this event, and I have been introduced to several key professionals dedicated to assisting our community. I invite ALL Music2Deal members to take advantage of this opportunity. The main thrust for 2025 will be information on AI in music and catalog sales andlicensing.
