Bursaries available for Classical:NEXT Berlin, 12-15 May 2025

Classical:NEXT is the global networking and exchange hub dedicated exclusively to classical and art music, for all professionals – artists, managers, presenters, orchestras, labels, educators, press, media, publishers and more. The event includes an interactive conference, project pitches, showcase concerts, expo, and networking. By taking part in Classical:NEXT, you join over 1,000 professionals from more than 45 countries from around the world.

The event takes place this year in Berlin from 12 to 15 May, and Tŷ Cerdd (with support from Wales Arts International) is offering a number of bursaries to support attendance as delegates.

Tŷ Cerdd (Music Centre Wales) will be managing the Welsh presence at the event – including a Cymru/Wales stand at the expo. Bursary holders will have accommodation and delegate pass booked for them, and will be given some support towards travel-and-subsistence.

For any organisations or individuals wanting to find out more about Classical:NEXT, the opportunities it provides and the bursaries we’re offering, we’re holding a Zoom session on Monday 27 January @ 16:30. We’ll talk about the event, how the delegation will be supported, and there’ll be time for your Q&As.

The opportunity is open to organisations and individuals.
