WOMEX 13 CARDIFF

Global Club Music Network at WOMEX 13

WOMEX 13 Cardiff will see the debut of the Global Club Music Network.

This newly instigated worldwide network consists of professionals committed to presenting forms of (live) electronic dance music, rooted within the many sounds of the world. Network members include DJs, bands, labels, booking agents, presenters and journalists.

The Global Club Music Network is a strong supporter of the two DJ Summit club nights (introduced at WOMEX in Thessaloniki for the first time), has encouraged WOMEX showcase and conference proposals on related topics, and plans to hold a Network Meeting at WOMEX 13 Cardiff.

Plus, there will be a collective presence at the WOMEX Trade Fair with the network's very own stand - aspiring co-exhibitors are welcome on a first-come, first-serve basis. Members are invited to present themselves through a daytime silent disco and plans are in motion to remix a track of a showcasing artist.

Sounds interesting to you? Please contact Miriam Brenner & the GCMN team at globalclubmusic[at]gmail.com

Getting to Cardiff - Easy as 1,2,3

As the capital of Wales, Cardiff is incredibly easy to reach using a range of transport. Delegates have the choice of travelling directly to Cardiff or going via other UK airports (eg. London) and taking a speedy, reliable connection to the Welsh capital from there.

Cardiff Airport connects directly to a number of European cities while the city itself is just two hours away from London by bus or train. International delegates would be well-placed to fly to London (Heathrow, Luton, Stansted or Gatwick) and hop on a quick connection via rail or coach from there.

Manchester and Bristol airports are also just a short train, bus or shuttle ride away from WOMEX 13's host city.
