top WOMEX Opening: The best of Flamenco


As a final, fond farewell to Sevilla, this year's WOMEX Opening will bring the best of flamenco present and future. We're thrilled to announce that the great Miguel Poveda will be kicking off the evening. Poveda's won nearly every award there is in Spain and abroad, including Grammys and Spain's Premio Nacional de Música in interpretation from the Ministry of Culture.
Be there and you'll see why. Sevilla's own Ultra High Flamenco opens the show. It's all rounded off by late-night DJing from Los Rumbers. Be there on Wednesday, 29 October, at the Teatro Lope de Vega.

top Trade Fair Stands Sold Out, But...


It's happened once again. Every year we increase the number of stands at the Trade Fair and every year they sell out. A new record this year: 320 stands. Feeling guilty that you didn't book one? In case of a last-minute cancellation, you still might get a chance.

top Sing-up for Mentoring Sessions


This year we are introducing Mentoring Sessions to the WOMEX Conference line-up. Delegates can reserve private, free, 15-minute consultations with any of our six special mentors. As you can see on the link, they come from various fields and occupations, and are here to offer useful advice. But you must reserve a slot to take advantage.

The sessions will be held on Friday and Saturday 11:30 - 13:00 in the Albaicín Room (FIBES, 1st floor). To reserve your 15-minute slot, write conference@womex.com and let us know whom of the six mentors you'd like to consult on what day. Be quick...
