Dear Media Colleagues,

August, holiday season - not for us...

KOREA, BRAZIL AND CANADA CONFIRM PRESENCE AT WOMEX

The world at WOMEX! Koreans, Brazilians and Canadians have now confirmed their presence as exhibitors at WOMEX.

Korea Arts Management Service have extended their number of stand units for this year and are offering a special, exclusive event for the WOMEX Opening presented in association with the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Tourism of the Republic of Korea.

Brasil Música e Artes (BM&A) will be increasing their presence at the Trade Fair; more Brazilian federal states will be represented at WOMEX than ever before. David McLoughlin, BM&A, on WOMEX:

"The fair is of great relevance to Brazilian music. Not only for the opportunity to meet our partners from around the globe but also for connecting with musicians and producers from the individual Brazilian States. WOMEX is like being at a family-gathering for us, one in the midst of great change, but family nevertheless."

The Canadian umbrella stand will include the three major organisations Canada Council for the Arts, CINARS and Folquébec.
