CIMA will be organizing a business mission to Eurosonic in Groningen, Netherlands. During the event, CIMA will host a curated business day, where Canadian participants will collaborate with CIMA’s in-market consultant to meet targeted delegates and build meaningful connections within the European music industry. To ensure participants are well-prepared, CIMA will also offer an introductory session prior to the event.
This initiative provides an excellent opportunity for Canadian music professionals to explore the European market and plan strategically for 2026. Artists and professionals interested in showcasing at events such as The Great Escape or Reeperbahn, planning a European tour, or expanding their network with industry buyers across Europe are encouraged to join CIMA’s Eurosonic business mission in January.
Participation fees:
$600 for CIMA Members (delegate badge included)
$900 for non-members (delegate badge included)
CIMA will also be exploring the possibility of securing a group hotel discount for participants.
Those who are not yet CIMA members but wish to join can contact Sam Rayner at samr@cimamusic.ca.
Please note that spaces are limited. Completing the application form does not guarantee participation. Selected applicants will be contacted directly by a CIMA representative. Interested participants are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible.
