MP Music Summit

A Day of Collaboration, Conversation and Connection! Proudly presented by Mornington Peninsula Shire.

The Mornington Peninsula Music Industry Summit is a one-day event which aims to draw together a creative community of musicians, songwriters, industry professionals, and emerging talent. It also aims to offer participants numerous opportunities to engage, connect and collaborate with likeminded music folk. At the heart of the summit are the songwriting workshops. These sessions are designed to cater to various skill levels, from budding songwriters to seasoned professionals looking to refine their craft. Participants can expect hands-on guidance from accomplished songwriters and industry veterans who will share their insights, techniques, and personal anecdotes. Attendees will have the chance to work on their compositions, receive constructive feedback, and potentially form new creative partnerships.

The summit will also feature a series of panels that delve into critical and practical aspects of the music industry. These panels will bring together an array of experts, including tour promoters, publicists, record labels, high profile performers, ticketing companies, AI experts and grants writers who will discuss current trends, challenges, and opportunities within the music business. Topics will include the importance of marketing and social media, strategies for independent artists, creating and curating show line-ups and tours as well as tips on how to create further revenue and utilise grant opportunities.
