Sŵn Connect

We are pleased to announce our reimagined conference, Sŵn Connect. A two-day music industry conference offering bespoke networking opportunities that will run alongside Sŵn Festival.

Designed for the public, artists, budding industry professionals, delegates and Sŵn Festival ticket holders the event seeks to bridge the gap between emerging Welsh artists and industry professionals, offering a platform for sharing expertise with peers across Wales and the UK, in an industry that lacks a definitive guide.

The conference will be held at Cornerstone, Cardiff, on October 18th and 19th, featuring a combination of insightful panel discussions, keynote interviews, and networking meet-ups.

In addition to the guest speakers, Sŵn Festival has carefully curated a panel of 30 mentors from Wales and across the UK. These industry leaders, renowned for their expertise, will share their insights through talks and networking sessions, providing attendees with a wealth of valuable knowledge. Please head over to our Sŵn Connect webpage to find out more about our Mentors.

You can purchase tickets for Sŵn Connect at a cost of £10 for one day or £15 for both days. If you have a general Sŵn Festival ticket, you are welcome to join us at Sŵn Connect.
