BIGSOUND 2023 Reveals Showcase, Conference and Special Events Schedule
BIGSOUND 2023 is rapidly approaching, and organisers have just revealed the full schedule of showcases, conference events, and other bits and pieces that will be taking place across the three days in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane.
More than 65 speakers and over 140 artists will descend on venues in Brisbane from Tuesday, 5th September to Friday, 8th September. Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda was just recently added to the conference lineup, alongside artists and industry figures like ROC Nation Records co-president Omar Grant, Interscope/Geffen A&R coordinator Michele Ronzon, Ziggy Ramo, Kate Miller-Heidke, Gordi and Camp Cope’s Georgia Maq, to name a few.
Ziggy Ramo: ‘Better’
Mike Shinoda’s keynote will take place at the Fortitude Music Hall on Tuesday, 5th September, just after the opening ceremony. Ziggy Ramo and Christine Anu will appear in conversation the following day at the performance space at the Judith Wright centre. Wednesday will also feature panels on neurodiversity in music, and the state of digital marketing in the TikTok era.
Omar Grant’s keynote will take place on on Thursday at 10.30am, with sessions from Anna Lunoe, Kate Miller-Heidke, and panels on regional touring, 50 years of hip-hop, and presentations from ARIA to happen later that day as well. For the full conference schedule, head over here.
BIGSOUND has also announced a raft of special events that will take place over the few days, including industry networking brunches and numerous late-night events under the banner of BIGSOUND After Hours. Presented by Amazon Music, there’ll be showcases and curated events from labels and agencies like TWNTY THREE, Our Golden Friend, Collective Artists, AUD’$, Sweat It Out and October Records. There’ll also be a Pride event celebrating LGBTQI artists.
