Due to the current public health guidelines, The Regional Sessions Victoria program scheduled to be held during October 2021 has been postponed and will now be held in March 2022 (dates to be confirmed). Ticket holders can hold onto their tickets for the rescheduled dates or request a refund via [email protected]
Tickets will be put back on sale at a further date, and we look forward to when we can all get together and connect through the art and craft of songwriting.
The Regional Sessions is a series of one-day events across regional Victoria offering keynote speakers, workshops, panel discussions and networking opportunities for emerging and mid-career songwriters.
In a competitive music industry, the art of songwriting remains an essential and enduring skill for success. APRA AMCOS and the VIC Government, through Creative VIC, have partnered to present a program for Victorian songwriters and composers across genres who want to hone their songwriting skills and build their local and international networks.
In this unique opportunity for professional development, songwriters will have unparalleled access to top music creators; be inspired and gain valuable skills to improve their songwriting craft; and to come together for post-event drinks and live performances to connect with the creative community.
