The conference and showcase festival ESNS (Eurosonic Noorderslag) in Groningen will now be a fully digital edition in 2021. Given the current situation and government guidelines organizing a physical edition is no longer feasible. This means that the program of both the festival and the conference will be presented as a digital platform from 13 to 16 January 2021.
The digital edition will continue the mission of ESNS; promoting and circulating new European music as well as offering many new networking opportunities and more reach through ESNS’ online channels and media partners.
In many ways, the 35th edition will be different from previous years. The current restrictions to contain the pandemic require the necessary adjustments for this edition. Either way, the focus on Europe is greater than ever. While ESNS previously highlighted a focus country every year, for its upcoming edition ESNS chose to focus on all of Europe.
The ticket price for a digital ESNS is €50,-.This includes access to the digital environment with live streams, on-demand panels, keynotes, sessions and showcases, access to a networking platform, and database. More information regarding the programme and the digital environment will be announced in the upcoming months.
Tickets for ESNS 2021 will give long-term access to the program and database of this digital edition and a discount on the registration of the subsequent edition in 2022.
