This year's Future Music Camp is about the future of artist-fan relationships. During the Corona pandemic in the last two years, the music industry has seen the emergence of new ways of artist-fan interaction and the monetization of fan culture that affect (DIY) artists, labels and management alike. The new business models, tools and platforms in this field are relevant because they show perspectives out of the fundamental dilemma of the music industry: streaming income is too low for many artists and there is a strong dependency on the live sector.

Whether it's a discussion round, brainstorming session or workshop - the format will be determined by the participants themselves. Proposals can be submitted until April 4, 2022. All informations about the sessions, examples from previous years, how to submission of proposals can be found here.
