Hey music lovers! 👋 Ready to dive into the world of the music industry? While Bursaries Room usually focuses on amazing South African opportunities, sometimes a fantastic international gem pops up that we just have to share! Get ready to explore the exciting Resonate Music Conference Bursary for 2025!
This incredible bursary offers you a chance to attend the prestigious Resonate Music Conference in Glasgow, Scotland, completely FREE! Organised by the Scottish Music Industry Association (SMIA), this conference is a must-attend for anyone passionate about music. Imagine networking, learning from industry pros, and boosting your music career – all without the ticket cost!
Who Can Apply?
The SMIA is all about building a diverse and inclusive music industry. They’re looking for individuals who might not have had the chance to attend Resonate before, perhaps due to geographical distance, other barriers, or those returning to work after a break. Good news: if you’re an SMIA member (which you can join for free!), you’ll also be considered for these bursaries!
- This bursary grants access for one person only. If you’re part of a band or organisation, each member needs to apply separately.
- You’ll need to commit to attending the full conference on Thursday, 13 November 2025, from 10 AM. Plus, they encourage you to check out the awesome showcases and support the performing artists!
- Sorry, but if you’re currently in full-time education, this one isn’t for you (but there are discounted student tickets available!).
- Applicants must be 18 years or older.
Need a personal assistant or carer? Complimentary accreditations are available – just let them know in your application!
