Apply: International Live Music Conference (Free Ticket)

19 January 2016

Due to high demand and the fact that managers often can’t afford to attend, the MMF has secured a guaranteed place on the ILMC Bursary Scheme this year, to allow one applicant to attend the International Live Music Conference (ILMC), the leading international event for the global concert and festival businesses. 

The ILMC Bursary Scheme is intended to provide young professionals and start-up companies – who would otherwise be unable to attend – the opportunity to participate in ILMC for the first time. 

Patrons of the scheme are Robertson Taylor W&P Longreach.

The closing date to apply is Friday 29 January 2015, with successful applicants receiving notification in the first week of February. A BursaryScheme place is a full ILMC delegate pass and details of all successful applicants will remain confidential. 

To apply for a bursary place, you must:

  • Be employed by, or own, a company that has not previously been represented at ILMC.
  • Have not previously attended an ILMC yourself.
  • Have gone through the ILMC nomination process (be nominated to become an ILMC member by two previous delegates). 

Full details about ILMC are available here, and the form to apply can be downloaded here
