Activities

Music Industry Day in Pärnu brings together music professionals, entrepreneurs, and enthusiasts to discuss the impact of the music business on culture, community, and the economy. The aim of the day is to provide a better understanding of what music entrepreneurship is, what opportunities it offers, and how this field can be further developed in Pärnu.

Music Estonia and Tallinn Music Week will present their activities and share opportunities they provide for professional development and music export. In addition, musicians and several music industry companies will offer practical insights into their daily work and growth. Discussions during the day will address both local needs and broader challenges, including perspectives on artist development and the role of venues and promoters in Pärnu’s music life.

The meeting creates a platform for exchanging knowledge and experiences, finding new contacts, and shaping visions for the future together. It is an opportunity to bring Pärnu’s music community together, to learn from one another, and to create new collaborations, ensuring that music entrepreneurship and the music scene as a whole can grow sustainably.
