Austin Convention Center

To conquer the German Market, it is crucial to understand the dimensions of the 16 Bundesländer (federal States). At least 5 different Bundesländer: Berlin, Hamburg, North Rhine Westphalia, Bavaria and Baden-Wuerttemberg, are important markets in Germany that concentrate in the intersection of Music, Interactive, and Film. Each Bundesländer has a unique structure, taste in music and style. Specific venues, hotspots, and priorities each require a tailored strategy.

Join us as we discuss the different concepts for those looking to break into the German market. Get an overview of the most successful festivals in Germany. Learn which cities are the most inspiring for your act and understand the necessities of how to enter each market.
