THE 2017 OFFICIAL MUSIC MONTH SUMMIT
‘FOR THE LOVE OF MUSIC’
Industry Professionals Talk Their Passion
The Official Music Month Summit returns for 2017 with a new format and a new venue.
This year the Summit will be held at Auckland Museum in the amazing Auditorium on Saturday May 20, which is also the last weekend of the acclaimed Volume – Making Music in Aotearoa Exhibition.
Titled FOR THE LOVE OF MUSIC – Industry Professionals Talk Their Passion, the 2017 Music Month Summit is themed around Passion, with 15 Music Professionals or Artists talking about how music has inspired or changed their lives.

Presented in blocks of four speakers, there will be a Q&A session after each block.
