MaMA: All eyes on Paris Pigalle

SWISS MUSIC was in the thick of the action when the clubs and streets of Pigalle between the 9th and 18th arrondissements of Paris teemed with music professionals. Over 7,000 industry professionals from more than 50 countries – most of them from francophone regions – attended the 14th edition of MaMA Music & Convention from Wednesday, 11 to Friday, 13 October.

During the day, they exchanged news and views in the cafés and at the numerous networking events and took advantage of the conferences to catch up with the latest trends in the music business. In the evenings, they mingled with the 5,200 festival-goers in the clubs and concert halls to hear up-and-coming bands performing short showcases.

Many Swiss music professionals were also present. They benefited from the Swiss Business Mixer networking event held under the SWISS MUSIC banner just behind the Moulin Rouge venue on Thursday afternoon. Here they chatted with international colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere and caught the showcase of Lausanne singer-songwriter DELIA MESHLIR who showcased her forthcoming second album. Alongside her, Neuchâtel-based Italo-disco kings PSYCHO WEAZEL and Vaudois electro-pop rapper SILANCE landed one of the coveted showcase slots at MaMA 2023.

The Swiss Business Mixer was presented by Swiss Music Export and FONDATION SUISA in cooperation with the Swiss Embassy in France.

The next MaMA Music & Convention will take place in Paris from 16 to 18 October 2024.
