＜About Music Lane Festival Okinawa / Trans Asia Music Meeting＞
Music Lane Festival Okinawa / Trans Asia Music Meeting is a music showcase festival that aims to bring music professionals from Asian cities to Okinawa City (Koza), match artists, and build a music network between Okinawa and Asia. This year’s festival will be held for three days from January 19 (Fri.) to 21 (Sun.), 2024, mainly at the Music Town Oto-Ichiba in Koza, Okinawa City.
Showcase festivals have been held in other Asian cities and have been a global success story. For this year’s event, we will invite music festival organizers, promoters, label representatives, media, and other music professionals, mainly from Asia.
At the event, in addition to showcase live performances, networking measures such as 1-on-1 meetings and pitching will be prepared to encourage artists to make concrete approaches to overseas markets. We will create opportunities to discover new possibilities in direct dialogue, which is different from online, such as subscriptions and web marketing.
