MaMA Music & Convention
16–18 October￨Paris (FR)
Impressive Swiss presence in Paris
For the 15th time, the international music scene gathered around Place Pigalle in Paris for MaMA Music & Convention, the most important event of its kind in the French-speaking world. The numbers of participants and performing acts were impressive, even if they were slightly lower than the previous year: 6,755 professionals (previous year: 7,125) from 51 nations and 150 performing musicians (previous year: 160). A total of 80 concerts took place at seven different venues and no fewer than 150 events offered professionals the opportunity to exchange ideas and network. In addition, the three-day event was once again able to impress with relevant and high-quality panels.
The Swiss presence – organised by SWISS MUSIC in collaboration with FONDATION SUISA, Pro Helvetia, Swiss Music Export and the Swiss Embassy in France – traditionally attracts a great deal of attention in the streets and clubs of Paris during these three days.
The next MaMA Music & Convention will take place in Paris from 15 to 17 October 2025.
SWISS LIVE SHOWS AT MAMA 2024
The stylistic breadth of the performances by IKAN HYU, NATHALIE FROEHLICH, SOFT LOFT, ROXANE and AAMO demonstrated the diversity and unbroken creativity of Swiss music-making and impressed international experts. The Swiss Business Mixer in the Bar à Bulles also emphasised the extent to which Switzerland can prove itself in a competitive environment. With 200 attendees, this smart venue reached the limits of its capacity. In addition to the lively networking, the participants also had the opportunity to exchange ideas with NATHALIE FROEHLICH and IKAN HYU at a ‘Meet & Greet’.
