The Future of Festivals: Live Music Gatherings in 2021 and Beyond
August 27, 2020 4pm ET/1pm PT
In the fourth edition of Mondo’s International Development Series “Be Present Everywhere While Staying at Home,” we will ask our panel of experts the burning questions of what festival-going will look like in the post-COVID future: How are different markets across the world planning to hold large musical gatherings? Is there hope for a 2021 summer touring season? How should artists prepare – or not – for upcoming touring opportunities and what can they – and their fans – expect? Will making money be possible from touring soon?
Join a panel of experts from Spain, Mexico, Israel and the US as they share their vision and expert advice with us. We’ll conclude with a very special live acoustic performance from legendary Argentine singer songwriter Sofia Viola.
