MIC MUSIC INDUSTRY
Compass 2026
3-5 September 2026
Zuiderpershuis, Antwerp, Belgium
After the first edition in 2025, Music Industry Compass is back!
Bigger programme, stronger speakers, and the same belief that brought us here in the first place: that the music industry works better when more people understand how it works.
MIC exists for independent artists, producers, DJs, songwriters, and the professionals who work alongside them. Three days of panels, keynotes, hands-on workshops and one-on-one conversations, built to bridge the gap between creativity and the business behind it.
On 3 and 4 September, each evening closes with the MIC Showcases: new talent performing for an audience of industry professionals.
On 5 September, we close the summit with a boogi afterparty you won't want to miss.
Register for the full three-day experience, or pick the day that suits you best.
