The EuroSonicbids Program is a joint venture between Eurosonic Noorderslag and Sonicbids to financially reward European festivals that book emerging European talent. The program will create as many as 800 performance slots across 400 festivals throughout Europe in the hopes of fostering growth of independent artists in the European music industry.

How it works:

• Easily access music and media for the bands playing Eurosonic Noorderslag on Sonicbids (we have login information ready for you)

• Book one of the bands using Sonicbids and get €500

• Open a new gig listing for your festival on Sonicbids and receive an additional €1000 when you book a second band

Festivals will be strongly encouraged to use these funds to pay the artists.
