EuroSonic Noorderslag 2011 will focus on The Netherlands

Taking place from 12-15 January 2011, the next edition of EuroSonic Noorderslag will focus on The Netherlands. EuroSonic Noorderslag, consisting of a three day conference and showcase festival in Groningen attended by 2,800 music professionals and over 260 bands & acts performing, will feature performances by Dutch artists and will dedicate conference topics towards doing business with The Netherlands.

25th anniversary – focus on The Netherlands
The 2011 edition will be the 25th anniversary for EuroSonic Noorderslag. What started in the '80s as little more than a fun musical battle between ten Belgian and ten Dutch acts, has now become one of the main events in the European music sector. EuroSonic Noorderslag will celebrate its 25th anniversary by making The Netherlands – home of EuroSonic Noorderslag – focus country.

More information and artist submissions
Deadline for showcase applications is 1 September 2010. More information about the conference and the showcases can be found on the EuroSonic Noorderslag website.
