BMC really excited to announce that Brighton Music Conference will be taking place at the British Airways i360 on the 1st / 2nd October 2020.

The UK government has advised us that from the 1st of October 2020 trade shows, exhibitions & conferences will be allowed to resume & after much research & advice from our partners, sponsors & government officials we have decided to reschedule & push ahead with the event.

This decision has been & will continue to be based on scientific evidence & public health assessments. We continue to monitor the ongoing situation.

As well as implementing social distancing, the event will adhere to all government guidelines, with a written risk assessment & mitigations put in place to reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.

All tickets will be valid for the rescheduled dates & should the event not take place they’ll be carried over to #BMC21.

In order to comply with the new guidelines both venue & theatre capacity has been reduced accordingly, so only a LIMITED AMOUNT of tickets remain.

“We’ve been overwhelmed by the positive feedback from the industry & there is a real feeling that people want to get together & share experiences to help our industry survive this situation. Giving the next generation an opportunity to meet their peers to learn & network is also something we feel is important for the future of the industry. We are all looking forward to the event & bringing the industry back together for the first time” – The BMC Team.

Here’s a few of the comments we’ve received from the industry:

“It’s great that the Brighton Music Conference (BMC) is happening at the start of October.

“Brighton Music Conference is set to run at the start of October & will be the first physical electronic music conference in many months.
