MIC MUSIC INDUSTRY
Compass 2026
2-4 September 2027
Zuiderpershuis, Antwerp, Belgium
After two editions that proved the need, Music Industry Compass is back for a third!
Bigger programme. Bigger ambitions. The same belief that started this: 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.
New for 2027: the MIC Showcases move into the day programme. New talent performs on the speaker stages themselves, right between panels and workshops.
Register for the full three-day experience, or pick the day that suits you best.
exhibition hall
The Exhibition Hall is a space to discover, connect and get hands-on with the people and brands shaping the music industry today. Visit stands from leading music industry organisations, instrument brands and music tech companies. Try out new gear, pick up advice you didn't know you needed, and take a moment to connect with the people behind these brands.
FACE, boogi and ALGAM are already confirmed for 2027, with more on the way.
The Exhibition Hall is open throughout the day until 17h.
